    scam?

    SCAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
  3. I think we may just be lucky kreet Sure,most waters are stocked,but even in waters with a fairly low density of fish its never too difficult to get a fish or two,just vary your methods mate,a fishery owner on here has just suggested I try using a blowgun on fish,maybe it works for him I dont know,but it just shows the unusual machinations of some guys minds Try powerbait mate,or my old favourite,the simple,humble mackerel feather
  4. Bread?Bloody hell,thats not allowed on my waters mate,thanks for the info though

    No mate,blowguns arent allowed,dry-fly only,besides,they are ineffectual for fish We are proud of you Lee

    Mr Green,if you do a check you will find out that your holding an illegal weapon Thats on a par with fishing on a trout lake with a maggot What a Heinous crime Looks like your not squeaky clean either,and remember,while ignorance is bliss its also no defence

    Apply for your FAC mate,your better asking for one for a .50 cal desert-eagle because your going to get some odd looks when your FLO comes around and you tell him your thinking of buying a glorified pea-shooter

    Mr Green,sounds like your having fun with your gun The quarry has time to move because of the fairly slow speed of the dart,its only a few hundred FPS,same principle as an arrow from a bow,quarry past 15 yards or so has time to react if its already tense and aware something just isnt right,its called jumping the string in bowhunting parlance

  10. Not even a bite?? Maybe night-time is better mate,all the trout round here only feed after dark,leastways I think they are all nocturnal feeders,I havent actually caught one in daylight yet

    They are good on small game mate,I killed a full grown rat stone dead with a head shot,if you look on you-tube theres loads of Blowgun clips,including a idiotic one of some kids somewhere in southern england killing a robin with one

    I used to have one mate,bought it from the states,shot small birds,a few rats etc,they are accurate,useful weapons,Oh,and you need a licence,they are classed as a firearm nowadays

    Anyone from up

    Wick in Caithness?I have lamped up there before but TJ is your best bet
  14. I have that,first edition?Excellent book
  15. Mothers-pride keg?Hmmnnnn,I will haveto pop off to the local tackle emporium,or get out old J.R.Hartleys book for that one,cant say I have ever seen such a fly?Wet or Dry? Whatever type of fly it is looks like your getting good results,keep it up
  16. Excellent catch mate,I dont target brownies to be honest,butwe should be fishing soon,so maybe thats about to Change How did you catch them mate?Details on method would be appreciated?I can see you reading this Chess you old devil,couldnt resist,your like a trout to a mackerel-feather,hows Daphne?
  17. I got asked the other week by a polish guy could I get him a 20LB carp for a wedding,Polands national christmas dish is carp,they always want them around christmas
  18. Another one from Sunderland?
  19. In LONDON? Where abouts?
  20. Your daughters got webbed feet as well Kreet?Looks like old Jack Pikes milt flowed in scottish waters as well,come to think of it JOE must have scottish blood,his face is a sort of wierd realtree-tartan I am not going to tell anyone how to empty a chalk-stream kreet,some things are best NOT divulged The fish are all perfectly edible though,however,the method is just a little bit TOO effective Anyway,we are going brown-trout fishing soon,dry-fly only,just waiting for a hatch of some small insect types whose name is only pronounceable by an entemologist then its off we go,Tight lines Kreet
  21. If you inherit the bad traits its in-breeding,if you inherit the good traits its line-breeding,I would class the ability to swim at 50 miles an hour as a good trait myself Besides,you like to take baths Most of us avoid them like the plague
  22. Ok JOE,sit down mate,right,take your shoes and socks off There see those webs between your toes?Us normal folk dont have them,and I certainly CANT hold my breath underwater for 30 minutes mate Most of us have pet budgies,not Bitterns I think you may have inherited more from old Jack-Pike than just the family name matey
  23. JACK-PIKE The old man of the withens himself They even named a fish after him JOE They say his feet never once got dry,from cradle to grave Does that explain the syndactyly that runs in your family?
