  1. Smallest adult fox I ever saw was a tiny 6-7 lb vixen,the dog caught her on an east-london sportsfield,she jinked like a hare
  2. Set them on the edge of a mangrove swamp and no matter how rough-and-ready they look your still virtually guaranteed a meal Owt is better than nowt
  3. Not all fish and crab traps are as intricate as those,heres two for mud-crabs,kids made them.
  4. Joe phoned me yesterday,he has just splashed-out some coin on a rod-blank,top quality rings,reel-seat etc,he is bringing it over tonight and I am going to finish it for him with the proviso that I can use it once in a while for a bit of theraputic fluff-chucking Nothing quite beats making something like a rod for yourself and catching a fish or two on it Any of you ever finished a blank off?Or does everyone prefer to buy a ready-made rod nowadays?
  5. This is how poor I used to be chess,no laundry bags for me back in those days,everything was always fully exposed
  6. I lamped in Hounslow a few years ago,late autumn,cant remember the exact number sitting around us along the hedges but it was between 14-16 at one time?
  7. A fellow piscophiliac We are a rare breed badoosh,I blame it all on my first sexual experience with a fish-wife at North Shields quay,I just keep getting flashbacks of the slime..........
  8. No way!!!! He tried to "Groom" me last week by PM'ing me about some weird deviant porno "Cock-movies!I am still not "Right"
  9. I have called them in while standing under a HPS streetlight,just because they are townies doesnt mean they have lost thousands of years of natural instinct,if anything they sometimes seem easier to bring in that their bumpkin cousins
  10. You twisted my arm JOE just got himself a rod blank,reel-seat,rings etc,going to build the blank for him then get out after the bass
  11. Like I said in my experience they dont take long to adapt to a lamp or your call...In the past I've had country ones come in just as quick as these "urban" ones. At what point do they cease to be urban? Most of the estates round here border countryside so I get confused up here they squeak in , but we went down south last year , as i lived there for a bit and when i moved back up here we had a due down , and the foxes there roamed the streets ect , dont think have ever seen a rabbit in there life , therfore when we tried to squeak them , was pointless , they just wasnt intrested ,
  12. Sounds like you had a good trip mate,I am getting the urge to go sea-fishing this summer,your pics are the final nudge I need
  13. Urban foxes were a lot easier to hunt before the ban,they come in like a rocket when called mostly,I once had to put out my foot as a physical deterent when one hared in to the call,we once got 5 in 2 hours,never lamped a full night in the city but I think it would be easy to get a decent bag,I know guys from the north-east who consider a drive from Sunderland to London worthwhile just to lamp fox,because before the ban they KNEW they were guaranteed a decent nights sport.
  14. I remember palace-hill AND nick knuckles F***ing hell,they make enough money out of it so why dont they still think its funny when WE use their catch-phrases?
  15. I wouldnt be able to help myself mate if I ever saw the "Chief" near a beach.I once met the original "Milky bar kid" and asked him to say "The milky bars are on me" He said "Look mate,I am 42 f***ing years of age,I dont fu***ing say that anymore"
  16. Bloody hell,I remember buying an old angling book years back with Mr crabtree in it
  17. I dont know if I agree with your methods guys,for me its fly only I am afraid,I am a bit of a purist like that,I just find it a lot more sporting and theraputic flicking my rod back and forth(no double entendres please)with the regularity of a metronome
  18. I wonder the punishment if a 16 year old kid had put five indiscriminate rounds onto a keepers vehicle and crippled him?
  19. Heres a report ditch................ http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kol08/article/...rticle_id=42807
  20. The fact is he has robbed a kid virtually of his life just for a f***ing rabbit,he fired five indiscriminate rounds into a vehicle because of some kids lamping with a lurcher.
  21. They fired a salvo of five shots into the vehicle It beggars belief mate
  22. I always call it reverse-racism
  23. If it was a poacher shooting up a keepers vehicle he would be f***ed http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/7441122.stm
  24. You KNOW it would have been absolutely nothing,I sometimes wonder if the police realise they are public SERVANTS,most of them seem to think they are an invading/occupying force,they would have put kids gloves on if she had abused you and asked her to apologise,if you had insulted her however,you would have been taking a ride in the back of a vehicle at the tax-payers expense,whens this madness going to end?
