Some of this, tiny amount, like one drop for a pint of maggs. You’ll smell like Grandma’s perfume/toilet air freshener all day.

Certainly agree on that. I’ve fished FG 17 times over the past 14 months for two chublets, one perch, a couple of minnows and a crayfish. I was sort of glad to hear Simon say in that video he knows other very good barbel anglers having 20 or 30 blanks.

I dunno, you’d be surprised. Last season there were a few 20s being reported, including James Crosby’s record 22lb 1oz in Nov. I phoned up in Feb expecting it to be busy and got a swim for the next day. When I fished it I was the only one there. (Didn’t blank! Caught a pike and a millers thumb...

Two feeder fillers I’ve used with success with worm on the hook come to mind. First is wormery compost mixed with a little sticky groundbait. The well riddled compost is high attraction/low feed. It has lots of interesting small stuff in it (pot worms, larvae, eggs, etc). The gbait helps to...

Just a note on pricing, I just restarted mine via the app and it was £7.99 (even though the website said £9.99). Not sure if it’s an app/website difference or because I’d subscribed previously.

His other video on there float fishing for chub is really good too. I think it’s called One Bite.

Yep all the videos are available on the app/website. There’s also some older (pre-Fishflix) videos on there (catching the Impossible, fish for all seasons). I think there’s over 100 videos in total.

Had a nice one last Friday. I could see it hiding under a tree root, eventually tempted it out.

A few from the summer

I’ve used the same rod (Korum Opportunist XTND) now and again for barbel and it works OK. Similar reasons to yourself; set up but telescoped down when moving through a jungle swim. It’s also been useful lobbing a bait under a tree that I couldn’t reach fully extended. A few notes: - they’re...

At Kings Weir Fishery but I don’t know whether he caught at the weir pool itself or further down the KW fishery stretch (ie the members section). You can fish KW weir pool on a day ticket. There’s a long waiting list for the members section. But again as Richard said, there’s no barrier for the...

Verulam is easy to join as long as you send an application at the right time. They usually don’t maintain a waiting list and start the renewals/applications process around May for the coming season. No record breaking barbel on their club waters, although you might get a back-breaking bag of...

Looks good. All it needs is subtitles for us southerners 😉

Two on the float from my last tench trip. 5lb 6oz and a bit smaller.

I went tenching Saturday. I had one on float legered pellet… …and a shocker on triple red maggot lift method
