There's a carp lake at the bottom of my garden and the owner keeps an oxygenator going 24/7 in the summer. Luckily my bedroom is at the front of the house :P

You lucky sod andy B)

I've travelled from sunny Manchester many times to fish Willow Park, even broke the lake record for the most fish caught in 36hrs (48 carp average weight 13lbs).

Fond memories

£20 a day ain't too bad, I paid £800 for a week in May this year in France and here's what I got for my money...

There is nothing better in life than sitting by the riverbank, drinking a few bottles of home brew...

Actually, there is something better: Sitting by the riverbank, drinking a few bottles of home brew, and catching fish!

hi, it probably says somewhere on this forum, but i cant find the answer;

if i add half a crushed camden tab to 40 litres of water, should i leave the water to sit for a while or can i go straight on to making up the kit?

It's pretty quick, but leave it 5mins to be sure.
You can probably get away with adding the whole tablet for 40L

cheers for the quick reply, my mistake, i meant 40 pints, so i'll stick with half a tablet just to be on safe side ;)
