Not bad Nick! I do quite a lot of lurking around the forum.

Everything sweet here in Burton upon trent. Just like to remind the 'mad scientist' of his roots now and again!

I'm still a bit of 'pig farmer' as Phil would say, but now live about 200 yards away from the Trent, so I do have a little drift now and again.

How's yourself?

 

[Phil Hackett The common Boastful Expert :-)]

Paraman you were with me when I caught it (zander)
Working on a write up on it as I write, Graham should have it tomorrow.

My memory playing tricks on me, big man!

[The Monk]

Not bad John lifes just about bearable at the moment mate, you really must stop lurking John, shame on you!

 

[paraman the pre-hospital care qualified blanker]

Lurk, lurk lurk, that's me!

 

[The Monk]

haha


nice write up Phil and a good session by all accounts

Foir those who don`t know Phil, phil turned his back on the cartp world before the carp world took off properly and since then he has always been a specimen hunters specimen hunter, always pushing the limits with some of the most obscure nusiance fish of abnormal size.

I hope you realise Mr Hackett us carp anglers have spent a fortune in bait growing those fish for you mate
