    Stef Horak - Bait and wait.

    Paid £5.50 a pint during the spring. Don't know how that compares with everywhere else.

    Natural baits

    The problem with using a bait that is naturally found in abundance within the river bed is that it becomes a needle in a haystack of similar food signals. I'm guessing you would need to be eyes on with a fish in that the bait can be delivered from hand to gob.

    Slings

    Alarmed!

    Centerpin reel angling channel on youtube?

    I don't need any lessons on how to be even more of an amateur angler 😁. I have seen that one but there is still a big gap in the youtube catalogue for UK centerpin fishing I found but thanks for the nod.

    Centerpin reel angling channel on youtube?

    I have been watching centerpin casting techniques on youtube recently and it's all very American/steelhead based which is fine but it would be good to see some UK centered talks on the subject so have subscribed. Good luck
