Hi all I am a fox hook fan! Used series 2xl for quite a few years, changed to fox SSBP which are excellent, really good hook holds and the point doesn't blunt

Hi Gerry They look similar, but there was more choice of styles. I got my first pair about 12 years ago, but stood on them, brought my second pair about 6 years ago. Regards Wayne

Hi all Just to confuse the issue, I have a free spirit hi s 13 ft specimen float rod, does any one know how this compares to the Normark avenger and the Drennan acolyte? Which would be more suitable for trotting for barbel? Also I have a Shimano techincum specialist float rod Thanks Wayne

Relum brotel Does any body remember the relum brotel? So light weight and so easy / quick to put up I think it was a really great idea, but poor build quality, but is still my favourite day session shelter, which I still use sometimes! I would love a tackle manufacture to make an updated version

Hi All I also wanted a new brolly after I broke a rib on a diawa brolly which was light, strong and good quality waterproof material, so after searching on line I brought a Grey's light weight umbrella - yes it's light weight, but is poor quality, fist time on the bank manager to get a couple of...
