Eight days fishing.

I am off work next week, and had planned a trip up to Scotland but unfortunatly my dog sitter can not make it, two Jack Russells and a Lurcher to look after, the wifes away Skiing, so instead of a trip to Scotland i am planning 8 solid days of fishing localy, its a dirty job but someone has it to do i could do with some still water venues just in case my river venues are not fit, nothing worse than being off work with no plan b, so wondered guys if any one could give me a heads up on some decent lakes, P.M. please, i can travell any where within an hours drive of Lincoln, so its a good area, planning to fish from 8.00 untill 5ish most days. incidentally guys if anyone from Hull or Donny area has time next week then maybe we could meet up. Any ideas gratefully recieved.

now then stevie im up for that mate no probs mate just let us know wen ya wanna come through and we,ll arange something

The Wife goes skiing and you've got the 3 dogs? I think you got bumped...lol

.....Regards.....Andy.....

O.K Piking Pirate i will P.M you, Andy 8 days fishing and you think i got bumped?

S'pose so...lol What are the dogs like? Can they not go fishing with you, or is that just hoping for the best? Some dogs are cool and some are just...well dogs. My old Labrador was cool for fishing. He was black and he behaved for the most part, unless he took to the water, in which case, he wasn't for listening. Handy for landing big trout though.

....Andy....

maybe i could come to yours first meet up anytime matey just let me know

Andy, as great as my dogs are they are to good behaviour what a Welsh Rugby star is to flower arranging, So i will leave them at home, Piking Pirate no problem where we meet, you will of course after be blindfolded and sign the official secret act

Sign the act but don't let him blindfold you, especially if he's got his wellies on. Before you know it he'll have you sucking chloroform off a cloth....lol....

....Andy....

ha/ha andy nice 1 you dont need no blindfolds mate i can be trusted

ummm if you're talking about the first week in march (sat 28th feb-sun 8th march) then just by coincidence i'm off work on holiday for a week too.... i'll be in on that meet up if you're close enough to here

you're making me want to come now too don't think i can make it tho

Robh and Piking Pirate, how about we meet up on the Wednesday and/or Thursday of next week, i dont mind coming to Hull, or meet with you half way, if you can do both days how about a venue of your choice one day and mine the next? what say you?

im up for that mate ill take ya to a venue first mate ill do all 8 days with ya mate ha/ha

Piking Pirate, you are more than welcome.

Good luck guys, and keep us posted

Andy Webster

Thanks Andy, really looking forward to next week, lets hope the weather stays calm, i am planning the week as we speak, i am going to try some new venues so a little bit of a gamble, but have got some bankers swims planned in too. The thought of 8 days fishing is wonderful, heres hoping we have some fish to post on here, will give a daily report.

well if we do get a few it'll make a change.... my seasons been crap upto now this year, even to the point where i've done 2 dawn til dusk sessions since things started warming up and all i've had to show for it is 1 drop back

i've got 3 days fishing planned while off work so hopefully i'll do better next week

I know Rob, most of us have had a bad time of late, saying that i have had two mid doubles on my last two outings, and judging by the catch reports on forums and in the press they are starting to move, so the countdowns on, lets hope the pike gods are on our side next week

yes all hail the goddess named esox lucius

...And in Hull today, a lorry tanker carrying 1000s of cases of wine, crossed the central reservation, spilling much of it's load. Nobody was seriously injured in the spill but Police are now searching for much of the consignment when it mysteriously disappeared before help arrived...

hi steve mate looks like robh cant make those days .he said fri but ill meet ya on wed mate .pm me wer and time

i'm thinking tuesday, friday and sunday at the moment but i'll pm both of you when i decide for definite.... i have a very limited budget both petrol and day ticketwise so i'll probably end up on a free venue for 2 days and day ticket for 1. good job i know some good venues to cater for both!!
