    The boy and I haven’t had the best of luck on the carp fishing front this new year, the one session that I’ve managed to join him on, we got frozen in and the day sessions he’d been saw only one hook pull and no other action. So neither the boy or I had managed to christen our new rods (his rods...

    Well the boy and I thought we would do the next few months on the river as the local lakes all have lids on them. We set up on a nice bend and after dark we started getting strange liners which turned out to be drifting ice! So we reeled in, took a wander and found a stretch that was completely...

    You know how it is mate, you can take a horse to water etc etc lol! I’d be better off teaching him how to replace tip eyes… 🙄 still nice project for this afternoon sorted! I’ve got a tub of tip eyes and guides to sort out old rods that I scavenge off broken rods over the years, plus some...

    Having spent the last few nights trundling around Kent and Sussex in my trusty ambulance, I was asked by wifey if I wanted to get the rods out last night, as she needed to look after the nieces and nephews which meant that there was no room at the inn for the boy and I. So I reluctantly agreed...

    Well pike season is once again with us and the boy wanted to get out and bag a snapper. He has been fishing the local ressie for a few sessions with no result, but today he managed two to get his piking season off to a good start

    South East Last nights efforts 28/10/24

    After my boys success on his first foray into beach fishing on his own the other day, where he snared his first codling, I suddenly felt the urge to get out on the shingle and see what I could catch for myself. The boy and I collected a couple score of live lugworm and headed to a mark I...

    South East Unicorns

    As it was the wedding anniversary, I wasn’t involved in this capture, this was the boys own efforts… He wanted to go beach fishing, so my only involvement was securing him 30 lug to fish with and a lend of my beach tackle seat box so he had plenty of rigs and leads to lose… err launch into the...

    On the first night I ever fished it, never seen the place before, just took a punt on the ticket as it was cheap, £40 a year. it was a wild and windy night and I really wasn’t feeling it, the place was full of sheep, being located slap bang in the middle of a sheep farm. As it was getting dark...

    So the boy and I were planning to do a night last night on our new mystery water (pics in the post above) so once I’d woken up from a string of nights piloting on of the NHS’s finest ambulances around Sussex, we boiled up some hemp, rolled a few kg of boilies, loaded the jalopy with enough carp...

    Rods out on the first session of a new campaign water. It’s only just appeared on my club ticket, no one has any real idea what’s in it, and it’s a little bit of paradise

    So since my last session at Zombie sheep lake, as described above, there have been a few changes in the ouchthathurt household, namely my boy coming to live with me. So fishing trips are now planned around the pair of us. We’ve had the rods out a few times and had a few little carp but nothing...
