    Spring clear out

    I have had a spring clean of my fishing tackle and have the following items for sale: Nash Indulgence 3 six leg bed chair - have had it 10 years but have used it for less than 15 nights in that time so it is in excellent as new condition. Comes with a Nash Wide Boy Bedchair Bag, also in...

    Making your own bait.

    It must be a matter of perspective; I wouldn't know Richard if he was sat next to me now but I always find his posts helpful and interesting. I never get the impression that he is preaching but do feel that he is genuinely trying to be helpful. My first thought when you posted a pic of the...

    Making your own bait.

    I laughed at the reference to garlic essential oil earlier - particularly effective if you want to get divorced.... Bloody good ingredient though. Annoyingly I have misplaced all my old recipes but one drop of the garlic oil to a 10oz mix (other flavours, etc used too) was perfect.

    Rucksacks

    With respect Richard, you can manhandle a rucksack in a tackle shop (and I do) but unless you can fill it full of your tackle and then walk across a couple of fields with it in your fishing gear a few times, you're not going to know for sure whether it's THE ONE for you. I'm sure we have all...

    Rucksacks

    Hi Robert, Take a look at the Ridgemonkey 40L rucksack. Like you I invariably rove and have gone through more rucksacks than I care to remember. I'm in my first season of using the Ridgemonkey but so far I am very happy with it. Steve

    Fishing line change

    It depends Chris, if I go to the Wye I tend to change it after each (2 or 3 day) trip. Otherwise it will depend on the swims I am fishing, so if the line has been rubbing on woodwork or rocks, it gets changed. It is very simple to see or feel line that needs changing and I will always err on...
