Oh and a little birdie tells me he had his biggies on zig rigged luncheon meat!

Yeah mate I know of a few of the biggies coming out , if you have a look in the gallery baz had a red letter day having over 20 biggies upto 7lb plus in a day session!!

I think there has been crossed wires down the line somewhere , I'm actually working all day but I know Nick has got this week off and was looking for something to do , he's a keen worker too

What exactly were they using the rope for just out of interest?

I will be working as per usual , hope to get down soon though and see what kind of shape the place is in.

We all have limited time , especially working full time 40 hour weeks. Perhaps it might be an idea to add a new section , or po...

No , let's be perfectly clear right now , I have given valid reasons as to why IMO I think it is a bad idea to start being careless , yes careless with information and pictures. Not when there are parts of this forum designed with the sole purpose of keeping certain things out of the way of unwanted...

There is a night permit holders only section on the forum that never gets used , and also a private message function , these are better options if you really feel the need to compare your catches rather than post for the world to see. It may come across to some as being over protective , a bit anal ...

I know why don't we all post our pictures on here for the rest of the world to see and then we can start a new topic in 12 months time along the lines of "I keep turning up and have nowhere to fish". There are reasons that information on abbots is hard to come by , and reasons a lot of the...
