    Seriously Mick, honest question, how big is your carp pool roughly as I've never seen it ?
    Length, width, depth ?

    It's quite small really, John

    Off the top of my head it's about 30meters wide and about 50 meters long, where I've got carried away with the digger it's about 3 meters deep.

    It may get a bit bigger tomorrow while I have the digger.



    All the best Mick

    My fellow Boingeraté, could I call on your collective wisdom please? I am currently compiling a "Top Ten Tips" for successful and enjoyable springer shooting.
    I have my list but am now full of doubt that what matters to me actually really matters to others!

    I know on this thread alone I have hundreds of years of accumulated experience, so please pass on a few tips if you'd be so kind.

    Clean barrel before first use.
    Shooting Air Rifles is like being a pubic hair on a toilet seat.
    Eventually someone comes a long and P's you off.
