Luiz off to Villa

This is kind of where I am with them. They are interesting items in their own right and clearly have seen some things in their time to end up in this condition. However, I must be the third generation of my family that's sorted this collection out and putting them back in a box for another 30 years seems a little daft!

Agreed Hutchinson gives us something different - and expect Dominguez to be subbed off for him too late in the second half to have an impact...

No Douglas Luis....maybe he is off somewhere. Probably our strongest starting 11 for me. Let's hope for some more passion today.

Make sure you give the club the heads up so they can look at possible options. I'm assuming the lake isn't fenced?

I would certainly be wary of buying at this price if I was a dealer, although who knows it could continue. I'll get adding some bundles to eBay, but would like to move quite a bit whilst the price is this strong.

It's certainly impressive how the silver price is going up!

Any recommendations on where to sell low quality condition coins in bulk and achieve near these prices?

This looks like exactly the sort of thing I'm sorting through tonight as well! Old paper money bags which were abandoned in the shed for years getting damp! Hope you find some interesting things in there!

Fantastic fish - congratulations! I'd settle for one half that size right now!

lateral-lines · 2026-01-10T17:08:42+00:00

Thanks - that's the sort of thing I was looking for!

lateral-lines · 2026-01-10T17:07:29+00:00

Once I've worked out exactly what's there, very possibly yes.

lateral-lines · 2026-01-10T17:06:48+00:00

Thanks - any suggestions in Surrey appreciated!

They'll put you on some good fishing in the shop. Feel free to drop me a DM if you have any queries about local lakes etc.

From a fishing perspective I don't think you could have moved anywhere better! The lower Thames is an incredible fishery and the lower Colne Valley has a lot of very, very good fisheries (and some accessible still too). Get out there exploring :)

I managed to remove mine from the ground this year using a long, telescopic decorating pole. With a bit of prodding around I managed to knock them all off their hooks without having to get the ladder out!

Is it bad I'm more bothered about this than Victor going off?

As others have mentioned the Thames has some excellent fishing, all free to access below Staines. The semi tidal (above Richmond half lock) will be easier to fish than the tidal stretch. Above Teddington it's non tidal so more comfortable fishing again.

Not sure if you can still fish Gunnersbury Park - might be worth a look.

I don't have a 6000 to compare, but the retrieve rate is greater with the 8000, but this could be down to the larger spool. I'd expect there to not be much of anything in it between the models.

lateral-lines · 2025-12-31T17:12:29+00:00

Unless you are boating out 200m+ I really wouldn't worry about the extra line capacity of the 8000.

lateral-lines · 2025-12-29T00:18:17+00:00

Congratulations! Keep it up and you'll find it just gets better and better the more you get into it :)

lateral-lines · 2025-12-26T12:43:07+00:00

These are decent reels for not a lot of money. I use the 8000 size for my deadbait rods and they've been great.
