Title: fishing Post by: oxford_fan on Sunday, March 20, 2005, 14:39:50 its the easter holidays from uni at the moment. tomorrow i'm going to pick up my mate in nottingham, then off to alton towers for the day. then we drive up to the peak district for a couple of days of fishing.
problem is, i haven't been for about 6 years so i'm a little rusty. the only thing i can't remember is how to set up my line (quite a major gap in my knowledge, i know). obviously i'll have the hook/lure on the end, but what goes on from there? here's me tackle box: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/ben3085/CIMG1218.jpg i need some combination of those little lead weights, a float? what else? cheers!

He's currently on a 48hr fishing thing, they take it that seriously that during the night, whilst sleeping, if they get a bite it sets a light and an alarm off to wake them. Some have even got kit that sends a vibrating call to their mobile which they keep in their pocket to wake them. Fucking loons! Oh, dedication's what you need..

I haven't been so much recently because I poked my mate in the back with my fishing rod and it snapped about a foot from the end :|
