  1. Nice work mate looks smart. Just out of curiosity how much does it cost to get something camo dipped?
  2. How much do you whant for rent that sounds better than my house
  3. I like guy Martin I like watching his programmes , I was a top gear fan but last couple of years I think it's just gone off the boil it just became to fake . It's like every programme now though they dramatise everything. Because thats what the general public whants to see. I do like guy Martin but I won't watch it now clarksons gone he was the backbone of that show.
  4. Yes I meant in likeness the ones I get my sheep feed on hold a ton are they the normal ones and the euros are bigger then?
  5. What's the difference between a normal pallet and a euro pallet...?
  6. Not a lurcher but my 2nd sheepdog I thought I knew the job and and whent for something diffrent and got a kelpie. BIG mistake I've had more bad heads and sore throats with this dog than all my others put together. The first 6 month I had him we thought he was deaf turned out he just didn't give a toss what I had to say lol. He's now 6 or 7 and I've still got him he's the hardest dog I have though will work day and night and is never tired but won't listen to a word I say he thinks he runs the farm full of his own importance. If he wasn't such a loveable dog he wouldnt still be hear but I
  7. Not so true mate!! Enlighten us then.
  8. Rubber rings are no good on an older dog the bones will be to strong.
  9. Neither are for sale. That sounds like a deal ant. What I can make out on the hardy rod as some of the writing is worn off it reads. THE "COACH Trout Rod Made by Mitre hardy England #5 That's all I can make out. Does that help at all?
  10. I'm sure not all dogs start at the same age for instance I'm mates with a lad who has the brother to my dog and mine is jumping, retrieving, took to the lamp well and is handy to have around when ferreting and is stock broken yet his litter mate is not doing anything and isn't overly keen on much and won't jump and there 2 years old. To be fair mine has seen a lot more quarry than his brother. So is it just because I've brought him up different to my mates? The brother to mine is more what I would call a energetic sort than mine who is fairly docile most of the time. I think your dog wi
  11. Well it's good news for me I was having a rummage threw some stuff in the spare room because I thought there was a couple old rods in there and I found them a spinning rod and a fly rod. The fly rod is made out of what looks like bamboo and it's a MITRE HARDY. And the spinner is a EDGAR SEALY. I don't no much about the rods but they look in working order so hopefully I've saved my self a few quid. I'm going to take them threw to John Norris as I've heard the guy there nose his stuff about old rods so he can tell me exactly what I've got. Fingers crossed I can still use them as they
  12. That would be great I can't see me needing any more than 10 at the most.
  13. There the same ones as in the link bobcullen79 put up. Ye mate any help is greatly appreciated.
  14. I think I'll try to crack on with some fly fishermen and try and get some tips of them and hopefully get a hang of it atleast I don't have to go far to practice the lakes only 50m away from my front door. Do you have an idea of a price for what I would pay for the initial kit? As I just get confussed when I go on line with all there deals and different bits and bobs so when I do go to a tackle shop they can't take me to the cleaners if you know what I meen. £20 is a bit steep for me to be fair I wouldn't whant to pay that
  15. I have thought about fly rods but am I right in saying it takes a lot of practice as it's an art form I do no a fella that teaches fly fishing but he whants £20 an hour is that reasonable or extortionate?
  16. I have a small lake in front of my house that is stocked with rainbow and I did have a fair bit of success as as a boy with spinners on there. And other places will be derwent water and rydal/grasmere lake and rivers around the way. I'm not against either option can you do both with the same rod. I know a stiffer rod is better for dead bait. Edited to say I would like the guy down the pubs opinion if he's about lol.
  17. I'm looking to start doing a bit of fishing threw the and would like some opinions on a good starter rod and reel I'm not looking to break my bank but would pay for a decent peace of kit more in the mid range price instead of cheap and cheerful or something I would need to take a loan out for. All I would whant it for is trout and pike just fresh water I don't whant to do sea fishing or anything. I'm already under way with building my raft so I will be doing a bit from the shore and some out in the water. Thanks in advance.
  18. There's a couple with them but the others will have been lost when they've opened them. I've told them to keep hold of them in future but you no what these dairy farmers are like always in a rush haven't got time to think about that lol
  19. Love these pics you put up that Lal dogs keen as mustard and a comical thing from how you portray her in the pics.
  20. I'll give that a go I won't be putting it together till after lambing time so have plenty of time to research. I'll let you know how it goes and try and get some pics up when it's done hopefully.
  21. Yes I there threaded and some have the caps but there not just water tight as I filled them up a bit then tipped them over to test and they were just slightly leaking so I'll maybe just screw them In and put sillicon round the top or would it be better to put sillicon in the threads the quickly screw them on? The ones in the link are the same as what I have.
  22. They came from a dairy farmand they just have to holes in the top that are a couple inch wide. Does it have to be bathroom sillicone? Or will any do. Yes I think they are tap holes in the top were they would have had a hand pump in the top
  23. What would be the best way to plug them blue barrels the same sort that game shoots make into pheasant feeders? I'm hoping to make a raft to fish of the lake outside my house in the summer so they will need to be water/air tight as I have no idea how to do it and hopefully some one with greater skills than my own could help me with a solution. Thanks in advance.
