Prologic Sky Pod sturdy pod that has served me well. If I am fishing anywhere rocky where I can't get the legs buried then I tie something heavy on just to prevent the whole lot going in if it's a savage take. I have heard it has happened to others, so don't take chances. The only downside is...

Just becomes a run rig, but does have the advantage that it kicks the hooklink out better. On the middle Trent where I mainly fish the takes are anything but shy and the gravel and rocky nature of the river bed, makes me wary of clipping up in any fashion. I would hate to think of leaving a...

I don't push the lead / feeder on to the collar (Korum Bolt & Run Rig Kit) just leave it resting against the collar and works just fine.

Thank you Richard, We are looking to go on a Monday/Tuesday, so will expect A1 to be a lot less busy, than a weekend. I thought at Fiskerton you had to be a member of the syndicate in order to night fish ? Funny you should mention float fishing for Barbel, I am going to try my hand at it...

Evening all, I am looking to take a friend for a single over-night session soon to either A1 pits stretch or Bob's Island. I would appreciate receiving some views on how either is fishing at the moment. Many thanks Kevin

Are you sure he didn't mistake Gudgeon for Barbel ? 😂

Glad to hear your well on the mend Simon, just need to support your good lady now being nurse (did you get the uniform to go with the job ? 🤔😂 Just think of how many Brownie points you will earn running around after the Mrs. :D As soon as are able to get bankside we will sort out a day /...

Hi Simon are you going to bite the bullet and go for the Newark & District Pisc Fed ticket for next season. If you do let me know and we will get some dates organised for fishing days.

Top Angling that Richard. 👍👍👍Did you know it was going to be a PB or close too it, when the fight was on ?

Evening Simon, Well when you have done all you can in the proper manner and it's falling on deaf ears then it's time to walk away as you have decided. It sounds like a clique of Committee Members that just don't want anything to change and will make sure it doesn't.

Not familiar with the Basia, is there that much of a difference between my Cadence 12Ft 2 Lb and the Basia 2.25 Lb to warrant buying them would you say ?

1.75 Lb might be the most popular across all the range of rivers, but if you were to break it down to big and small rivers there would be a split of 2 LB for bigger rivers & 1.75 Lb for smaller ones. Having said that it's down to personal preference. on the Middle Trent I prefer 2 Lb and my...

Think that was me earlier in this thread, did you get it at the discount price of £45 ?

Took a drive out to Future Fishing at Farndon to get my Christmas pressie from my Mum & Stepdad. Drennan Specialist 50" umbrella which will be ideal when fishing from stone steps as it can be supported by two banksticks where it's not feasible to get a central pole in the ground. I was going to...

Good luck mate, Curse of the back rower shot knees. Hope you have a speedy recovery and get back on the bank asap.
