By all means use your boilies and good luck with them. Keep your eyes

quiet and pay attention at all times and you'll catch more - I promise



I think the reason i don't use boilies is because i don't have much
confidence in them, i don't really understand why a fish will take a
strange bait that it's never seen before just because it cost a lot.


Well boilies do work and can be productive for many species. If you use them
sensibly the cost needn't be _as high_ as many think. You can by a 1Kg bag
of high quality frozen boilies for about £9 and if you buy 10/12mm you get a
fair few for your money, and at this size they will be suitable for more
target species (which would suite you better). If you just take the amount
required per session out of the freezer a couple of days in advance (and
defrost and air dry properly) you will find a 1Kg bag last for a fair few
sessions.

More expensive than mum's cheese, worms, sweetcorn etc though.

I
have much more confidence in the natural baits.

p.s thanks for the tips (i'll make sure i take a tub of worms just
in case the cat food dosn't work and i need to change tactics)


I have never used cat food so I will be interested to here how you get on
with that.
BTW if you have trouble finding worms tip some soapy water on the lawn
around dusk and wait 20 minutes ...... that will make a few surface.

Above all (as others have said) enjoy your fishing.

Nowt, talking about fishing is fine....
But those guys going off on a "yes but , no but, yes but, no but" tangent
was getting a tad tedious and would be better off being taken off group, and
leaving the group for discussion of our beloved pastime.

He probably prefers threads like ''Albatross eating mice''.

Of course if a person doesn't want to follow a particular thread that is
easy to do.
