Better stock up me self.
Crikey Peril, I couldn't find them words in my medical dictionary. Here I am, maybe catching it myself [cough, cough, cough, there ya go] and I don't even know all the symptoms.Peril said:
So Tryhard, you said ya feet slipped off the peddles. Got a Hobie then?
Tell us more about being insane and catching fish where there are no fish. I could do with a bit of that insane myself. What ya catching? Pics?
might try some poppers in my local tidal creek lots of weed and stuff just below the surface but the bream can be seen hitting stuff on the surface
Always worth a try never seen em caught with em some1s gotta try it

Last year, I bought a very impressive popper (like big and salty and flashy), and only dragged it around for a couple of minutes because I thought it wasn't working properly. After the trip, I put some wire and some weight on it so that next time I used it, it would sink.
The penny had not dropped, that it was supposed to pop around on the surface, and that some fish like it like that!
The subject popper has been hanging on the garage wall, not doing very much except gathering dust. When I pack up to go fish, I look at it and say "next time perhaps..next time"
I suppose my fishing style is very "suck it and see", compared to some of us who say lets target this or that species. My doctrine is this rod is for the fairly small ,but not too small fish, and this one is for the great big ridiculous too big to pull on board fish. (Occasionally, I will walk past a 25kg dumbell, and see if I can even lift it with one hand, in a sideways dragging motion, then I have to compensate, and suggest to myself, that the buoyancy of the fish will help 8) cos I'm not gonna be strong enough)
I think this is the whole thing about fishing, for instance if the sea was full of whiting, and little else, I would not bother. I paddle and think of all the species I know, excluding pelecanus cormoronasauras vulgaris, and the imagination runs wild. There are a lot of things I have not caught yet.
I want that list to shorten by 5 per year. (but I'd need to live to be 500)
Rambling again, Cheers all Andybear :lol:

I ordered some of these the other day when I was getting some other stuff from Cabelas. Cheap so no great loss if they don't work. Sucked in by the colours.

Bought 2 each of the glass/black back(022) and glass/greenie(130). They are 50mm. I expect the hooks will need replacing
