Upstreaming with a fixed lead would be one scenario where they would offer an advantage The delk hangers themselves are actually useful connected up even if they don’t move. They don’t even need to necessarily be clipped on the line. They flash to the audio bleeps coming from the alarm and can...

I’m going to be super critical Ian but i found this one detracts away from what i believe you are trying to accomplish Your first few videos with your pins on the table are excellent because the information was there and it was focused on the subject of centre pins This last one was to me was...

I’ve seen some videos of the Australians and Americans using them off boats with things like enormous Barras stripping the clutches. Unbelievable durability and quality in those reels. Us barbel anglers barely take them past tick over.

I think they sorted them out Jon to be fair I bought probably one of the very first to make the shops and that was replaced with no quibbles for another very early which again broke and was refunded no quibbles in full. Since then I know people that have bought them and had big fish no...

Very smart you big tart 😂

Paul My experience says the complete opposite. I had a free spirit 17ft power float and yes it was not a bad rod till you hooked something then it did snap ….. twice right through the middle of the tip section and the shop that sold mine told me I wasn’t the only one to return a broken one...

I have the 1lb 6oz Harrison Avon with a long spliced 2 oz carbon tip. No id never part with it but it’s really not difficult to get hold of and have built

I was going to write a comment that pretty much aligns with exactly what Chris has written above as it hits the nail square on the head. A passion for angling hasn’t gone anywhere. It’s just everyone has their own versions of what that passion is and quite frankly I say good luck to them...

Same our end. The piss poor attempt of a storm the other night has made Not a drop of difference to the rivers

It’s incredibly simple Cliff you don’t really have to do anything other than download the app. Obviously allow the app to access your location when it asks then just tap on your square to reveal the unique location point with 3 words. If you think signal is going to be a problem where you are...

Ladypit farm on the scunny ticket is remaining shut and rightfully so. The whole stretch is just one big gang bang and will probably remain like that all throughout June.

They are still spawning on a lot of rivers it’s now like this every year. Chub still going at it well into July is tthe norm nowadays. They should give us March and April and take May, June, July

People use them on the nene but No in my opinion they are not required on that river because the two clubs you have mentioned recently about joining, do not allow fishing through the night. It’s a short session water where your chances of success with the barbel are greatly increased at either...

Warm up the back of a 8mm drill bit with a lighter and you’ll open em all up in seconds

It’s the ideal way yes I 100% agree but you need the ideal situation to do this safely for both the angler and the fish. It works in wading situations and banks that taper off nicely into the river like nice inside bends. But off the top of my head I can’t think of more than just a couple of...
