@@markdfield well as usual I'll be going through everything in detail including how I potentially generate revenue to at least cover maintenance costs, especially as there's alot of upfront sunk costs to recover. Also boating content will resume when I next goto the boat too there's some upgrades going on there too. 😁

@@russgreetham not yet the pegs aren't really that safe and I don't have insurance for now, it'll also be invite only and not public day tickets once I'm done I want to keep numbers low so as not to overly stress the wildlife and bankside etc but there will be opportunities including closed tournaments once I'm ready

@@davidames6991 not sure if I'll open it to the public yet but there will be ways for invite only fishing

@@davesandall4530 don't mind rolling up the old sleeves myself nope

@ that plain to see ! I hope your work gets the rewards it deserves

@@davesandall4530 hope so 😁

@@StuartArmstrong-m7r too old 🤣

@@chris-living-the-dream haha the s43 isn't that bad for space tbh if my back functioned like a human I'd have no problems in there compared to.the s28 it's huge even with those big ass engines in em

@DavesBoat no there was plenty of room with the D6 in there, it was much better to work in than my boat.

@@chris-living-the-dream a 43 with d6's ? Didn't think they'd done any unless it's a repower, though tbh the tamd74s in mine are amazing so smooth and so much power

@DavesBoat maybe it's a 42 , it's a 2006 boat with the same year engines.

@@chris-living-the-dream yeah think that's the 42 with outdrives ? Think mine was one of the last 43's

@@edwardanderson2717 I always come over to the lifeboat the food is lovely there I stay at the boat folk marina 😁 I'm berthed at universal

@@DavesBoatawesome David , I’m down there at the marina tomorrow morning,cleaning and I run the engines for a bit , I’m really looking forward to my boat a lot this year , it’s been a great journey it’s fantastic that you documented a lot of your journey for to help other people, definitely have to meet up for a pint at the lifeboat and I will show you my sea ray 370 bridge , there’s always something needing done but thankfully it’s cleaning right now , fingers crossed 🤞, you said in this video what would people like to see , I think if you pre bait a few spots with a lot of corn and pellet about a rod length out a few times every couple of days then you can find out what species you have , everything eats corn and pellet that’s just my thoughts David , also a dead bait rod to get the pike sort, looking forward to your videos, well done and congratulations on getting your lakes and river stretch .

@edwardanderson2717 I have been throwing in old pellets and corn so great minds think alike 😁 I can't wait to get down to the body and get on the water even bought a new paddle board to embarrass myself with.

@@DavesBoat That’s great , looking forward to following your progress on the lakes and definitely catch up at the lifeboat David , tight lines !

@edwardanderson2717 certainly looks forward to it

Thanks for following along, it won't be a public access fisheries but invite only I'll be providing more details when I've managed to get more stuff done.

@@johnburton894 they certainly need alot of work

@@Chrispi63 thanks

@@chris-living-the-dream well the nature reserve lake at one time did indeed have planning for a marina but that was abandoned in favour of building houses and the uproar from the villagers about a potential marina wow that's a headache I don't fancy right now, the EA are gonna be difficult enough to get permission from them for a small pontoon. And maybe a hydro power generation station 😁

@@DavesBoat the pontoon would a be great start ,hopefully ill get out up the trent this season , ill just need to find a new crew 😀

I'll come crew for you if you'll let me video it :)

@@DavesBoat yeah that would be cool pal , ill be at burton waters doing some jobs on my boat on and off all week if you fancy popping over for a drink .

@@chris-living-the-dream May be able to pop through on Wednesday just waiting to hear from Aston when they're coming to swap cars around

Thank you, hopefully I can make something out of it all.

Everyone I've spoke to has said there's no carp left in the lakes but what we're going to do is sort the middle lake first as thats the easiest for access, we're going to do a survey with a radar drone and a few spot nets see what we can find, then once I can get access to get a boat on the water we're going to cut back all the overgrown trees, drag out the weed and the broken branches from the storms and get some agitators in. This will be interesting as there's no power to the property so I'm going to be doing a fully off grid solar install.

Correct on all counts, it was owned by Bowler (the inventor) he eventually ran out of money and it was sold to a pair of brothers who have held it since then and kinda abandoned it, it was let out to the north muskham village angling club for a while but even they kinda abandoned it in the last few years as the lakes became unfishable due to neglect and poaching.

Thank you

@@1spongeygit well if things go as I hope a simple channel membership and you can 😄

@@stephenbowers-sp3qn thanks

glad it interests you, its gonna be a lot of hard work I've just been out today to look at compact tractors and mowers/post knockers/pipe layers/augers and bucket front ends too I have under estimated the amount of equipment/manual labour to do it all :) hopefully I can make it a lovely space though not only well looked after but full of wild life.

@DavesBoat I'm sure it'll be stunning Dave, big project though. My advice on tools and equipment if funds allow mate is buy the best you can afford ie stihl, John deere etc etc, it'll be worth it in the long run and reliability is priceless. Unfortunately I'm in Chelmsford, Essex otherwise I'd volunteer some help for work parties. ☹️

@@stuart.the.pear.1 that's the one. Several people have pulled the good chub in the river on me but I've only seen barb and carp pulled out myself and I've had no luck on lakes or river for predators. Apparently the lakes haven't flooded in 35 years though as when bowler quarried them the spoil raised the overall level to be a good 5 to 10m in some places above the river. The bottom end has river pegs but they're all collapsed so I plan to rebuild them. I'd love to open up as a commercial fisheries but the villagers are already after me with pitchforks so that's gonna be a hard push so it'll be invite only lakes for myself and friends and UA-cam members for now. My immediate intent though is to rewind it sort hedges out and encourage bio diversity.

@@DavesBoat Have a word with Swimbooker or Catch they operate online booking so if you want to open up you can have people book for so many days/nights etc you can dictate times of entry how many you want on at a time so can limit noise etc worth a chat with them if you want to have paying anglers.

What a venture, good luck to you fella, i’ll be watching with interest 👍

@colinwakeling6367 thank you

Thank you, hopefully i'll keep it interesting :)

@@StuartArmstrong-m7r no the boat is down on the south coast and I'm in the midlands now

@@makingmemories149 it's one of the things I'm hoping the EA will give me approval for

@ look forward to the updates. If you see us on the river give us a shout and have a chat. Good luck with your project

@makingmemories149 will do 😁

I have a company lined up to come and do exactly that for me but I need my fisheries licence through from the EA first as they need to get EA permission to work on the waterways.

@ I was going to suggest using a company too. There was one that creates depth maps for lakes. I looked into it when I was developing my Carp Fishing Simulator game.

@@richardspence6672 could be anything I've heard of carp and pike catches 25 pound piles etc not that I've pulled anything yet

@DavesBoat minnow bait then

@@richardspence6672 had a few nibbles on corn today but it's so over grown and weedy it needs alot of work

Possibly some small perch or roach in there maybe try maggots and see if that encourages any fish also worms are good if a water has not been fished for years.

@@IvorCooke I will be during the week

Cool hopefully enough are interested to make it worth while

Wish it was back on the boat but this is better than nothing, hoping to get more use out of WR this year though.

@ you know the score Dave if you want to meet up or need help give me a shout good luck on the lakes fishing challenge though. I like fishing but I’m crappy at it haha

I am gonna go down solo some time so extra hands will be amazing I'll text you when I'm heading down

Great idea's for places to go, why unlimited ribs only on a Tuesday though is there something that goes on?

@@DavesBoat No just one of the steak houses by the Town Quay Marina does an offer on Tuesdays and the ribs are to die for!

ahh that sounds great quick trip up to poole for an evening of ribs and beer :)

great idea's will do them in October as I didn't get much footage last time too buy actually enjoying my holiday :)

It's a lovely area isn't it. Where did you move to ?

@DavesBoat I moved to Beaulieu initially then back to Christchurch, where I was for 30 years previously. However I have now downsized and trail my boat, so can launch anywhere. Yes it is a lovely area but the solent chop can be a pain

@@fat_tommo_goes_boating yeah people have warned me about the chop and luckily for the 2 weeks I was down there it was almost non-existent even with mad winds. however i think I was lucky, having said that having come from the Humber the chop doesn't really bother me its the rollers I don't like large and slow so the boat sits off angle for periods of time. Anyway back down in October so hopefully the weather will be kind again and I can get some hours running in again.

@DavesBoat The Solent chop is worse from Cowes to Hurst in my opinion, all wind over tide. If it's bad, wait 4 hours and it will be gone as a rough rule. I might be about in October aswell. I need a few more trips out before the winter.

the 4 hour thing is good to know, we did get out to the needles past hurst but tbh at 26 knots we were basically flying over the chop so didn't notice it so much 😂

You are indeed. In the great words of Nick :)

and i will probably screw up a fair amount :)

So far loving it going down again at end of October see if i can get a week down before xmas as I'll get a little busy until the new year after that.

I'm sure i'll make it round to Poole soon too. plan on visiting all the local area's etc.

I forgot just how much I enjoyed it and it was nice to actually get to use the big beast properly and get some hours actually using her not just floating around. The ability to come and go from my berth basically 24/7 without even considering tide is amazing its like so much freedom even just to pop out for an hour and back a couple of times a day. I know its like a 5 hour drive to get there but now I'm planning on going down for a week or 2 every couple of months and I'll actually get out on the boat.

@@DavesBoat that’s great! And plenty of opportunity to get out during the winter too, there are heaps of calm but cool days down there. Good move away from Grimsby, too restrictive with tides, and really nowhere to go other than Scarborough or Whitby. It’s getting towards summer where I am, which sounds great, but regular 40+ degree days are brutal!

@@marinepilotchris3048 but at least you can be on the water ?

@@DavesBoat pretty much every day

Little jealous then I remember you now live in a country purely designed to murder humans. I'm hoping we get a break in the weather again towards end of October as I plan on going down for another week before the xmas shenanigans kick in.

Glad you enjoyed it

For me as a motorboat its only 20 mins to Isle :) little bit slower for you sailing but fareham is only just up the road from Universal where I'm berthed too so if you see a big motorboat flying around give me a wave :)

@@DavesBoat haha yes but i have an engine too but only 20hp

Burton waters is just up the road from me and its where SJ was from. Its nice there. You can also go through to the trent and cromwell lock has a lovely brewery just walking distance away good food at weekends and great beer, or you can head up to newark or even into nottingham if you want its not fast due to the speed limits but like lincoln its a lovely day drive to spend a night on the town and drive back next day. My house is across the river trent just before Newark so I'll wave :)

@DavesBoat that's the plan for next year , they are replacing the flood gates at the marina so we can't get out for a month , but it will give me a chance to do more work on the boat 😆

well if you need a hand i'm literally 20 mins max away :)

@@DavesBoat thanks that's much appreciated 👌🙏

While at SIBS go find Richard at ROC marine ask him to show you the kicker and rockford fosgate marine stuff tell him Dave from Wild Rose sent you.

@@DavesBoat Certainly will do!

😂😂 not really

Mixing 0183 and 2000 isn't a big thing tbh I'm still running old bits like the transducers etc using the raymarine itc5 as the converter . Having said that I have my old ray marine hybrid touch plotter I removed now as I needed all axiom pro for lighthouse 4 the old plotter only goes to 3. If you want it....

@@DavesBoat What size is it - i may have a use for it!

@lovelifeloveboat I'll check when I get home

@@DavesBoat It may fit let me know what bits and pieces you have pulled out and I may make you an offer - give me a shout on the Sealine Forum

I don't but if you join sealineforums.co.uk there's a guy called cannonmike on there he's got sally Jane and has had the arch hinged so he can probably point you in the right direction

@@lukekirby4180 nice boat how do you find it on the mooring rather than on the marina and with shore power ? Is be paranoid about not enough battery life 🤣
