    Korda Vid

    Many reasons.. Some fish are incredibly difficult to hold up due to there shape/size/behaviour on the bank. Picture the situation; you’ve been up all through the night getting plagued with bream and tench, no sleep, your knackered. Finally just on first light the rod rips off and after an epic...

    Bait pouch

    I use the new Drennan EVA one for trotting and I like it. Holds its shape unlike the old ESP Stalker pouch I had and it’s a good size. Nice and easy to wipe clean too

    Korum 2.5lb/12ft rods

    I’ve been using the 12ft 2.5 big water rods on the Thames for the last couple seasons and for the money I can’t really complain. The blanks are pretty decent, plenty of power but still nice to play fish on. The corks not the best quality and I much prefer old school chunky sic’s compared to the...

    Milk proteins

    Cheers lads. It’s been difficult with the amount of crap coming down, was using 14oz’s of lead last night! And even then would only hold for 15/20 minutes! On top of that we’ve had discharge coming down like I’ve never seen before and the other night I had a 13lber resting in the net whilst I...

    Milk proteins

    Just a bit of an update for anyone thinking about having a go with milk protein baits. Not actually got round to knocking up a spicy milk yet and not sure I will bother now but been using JB’s frost and flood flavour on his super milk for the last 3 weeks and I’ve had 8 barbel. 6 of them being...

    Are you happy to pay to watch fishing videos?

    The carp scene is flooded with them right now. These subscription things normally start off good but once they’ve done pieces with all the decent anglers and start running out of ideas they just end up putting out shit for the sake of it to try keep subscribers. I just join for a month or 2 in...
