Swim Hogs!
I have a local lake near me, lots of big carp 20's and 30's
Its available on day ticket £12 per 24hrs. As a result of this it gets very busy. You are lucky to get a decent swim most of the time, which is fine "first come first serve".
However there is one particular guy who got set up in arguably one of the best swims, two years later he is still there.
Does anyone else know of such Hardcore anglers, or do your lakes have a maximum time limits.
Personally i find this a little unfair to hog swims for so long. Plus i would get a little bored after so long in the same swim.

Set up in the next door peg to him using 1 rod,a landing net and the bare minimum of tackle.Use bread,worms and luncheon meat for bait,then procede to catch more carp in 2 hours than he has caught with his boilies and bite alarms in 2 days! Doing this should wake him up a bit! LOL
