new record in redmire?

[netbustercarp]

just read in angling times a common carp has been seen at redmire estimated at 4ft long!

[TEZZA]

pmsl and it's been hidden all this time, it's not exactly the largest venue in the country

[Pilky]

I warned Les Bamford not to let wiganers on redmire

remember wigan angling law 2.4.5a

Any feesh spotted fromt'top'o'embankment may be guesstimated by the viewer. Estimates can be adjudged by the size of viewers pets/plants..
eg. it were longer than sunflowers next door and wider tha me dogs yed..

Length can be adjudged in feet only... none o' that euro metric nonsense. Inches are furt puffs..
when guesstimating length in feet'n'inches actual length is to be multiplied by 1.85...
alternatively an only in special cases railway sleepers are a good unit of length..


I wonder if remire bookings have taken a downturn recently?

I don't mean to be rude Pilky but I have read this post half a dozen times and still cannot make out all of what you are saying............ Is it a Northern Dialect ????

yeah fella he`s taking the mick out of wigganers thats the way they act and speak know what you mean though lol

[kevw]

I think Pilky is from Bolton where they only speak proper Queen's English, he's suggesting that in Wigan we often exaggerate the weights of fish and is trying to put across how we might portray spotting a big fish

[incognito]

pliko is from Bolton and is so so right about wiganers heard it many times hilarious,have nearly bit my own lip of in the past trying to stop myself bursting out in laughter from the exaggerated tales

[kevw]

As long as it keeps you off the Scotsman's

[incognito]

you`ve got a few to go at round there fella best of luck mate know people who have had fish out of scotsmans but only to mid 20`s but theres possibly bigger in there

[kevw]

Saw one in Scotsman's last year from the top of the embankment, wouldn't like to guess it's weight but it was as long as a dwarf conifer and as wide as next doors labrador.......................................... ...


There are some good fish though in that area, and considering it's on my doorstep should really put some effort in for one of them :
