    New big river rod

    I have the maximisers in the 13ft length. I have to say they are a cracking rod, i have used the 2lb tip for rolling a big cube of meat on the tidal, fishing with a 3-4 oz feeder, fishing a method feeder at range for bream and one of my breaming mates who can cast has put a 2oz lead 100m...

    Cemex selling up!

    Chris, Most lakes are overstocked with mud pigs as it is, very few places where you can fish lake wise these days and not expect to see them. Vermin at times, would love somewhere to remove all carp and have a proper decent fishery, full of nice tench, bream, roach etc. My local Cemex...

    Kicked out for catching too many!

    When i was a junior, i used to fish with the adults in the local prison league (dad was officer and fished as well). Half way through the series of evening matches, it was decided by the majority that juniors wouldn't be able to win the trophy (i was the only junior fishing) and this was...

    New bivvy????

    Thought i would add to this. With regards to the bivies with clip in inners, they do take away some of the space. I have the Nash Double Top, comes with the inner capsule, never do the door up, but it does enclose you and should you be in a mozzy area, you will be safe, until you have to do...

    Flask?

    I have to say, i think Andy does have a bit of a negative attitude, we are all on here to learn, maybe he is one who knows it all, therefore we are all below him. As with many things it's all down to personal preference, as i now more than often do a night, i take a stove with me, but should...

    Bait disasters and near divorce!

    The best one i had, div 5 national on the drains, talking early 90's here, team tactic was dead maggots for eels on the pole. As we got on wel lwith the local maggot farm, the plan was we arranged for all team members to have 3 pints of deads. Travelling down to the national, we arrived in...

    Great Ebay/Internet deals deals.....

    It isn't like the through actioned babrel rods that some use and it is personal preference, i have had fish to 12.07 out of the tidal only fishing a few rod lengths out and alos used it for freelining a big cube of meat upto 100m downstream (know distance as hit knot with backing) and still felt...

    worm charmer

    You just need to make sure the bucket you put the water in, hasn't had bleech in it, otherwise the area of grass dies and stays like that for a good while (i know).

    rod tip lights?

    Sorry for the delay. Yes you have to take the tip ring off, you need to types of shrink tube, white for the base and then clear to go on top. I didn't really know what i was doing, but it took me 15-20 mins per rod. It is alot neater than just having it on the top, and doesn't effect the...

    rod tip lights?

    I have heat shrink tubed mine on my tips like Dave Lumb does on some of his rods if you want. Alot mbetter than having an isotope sticking up in the air, as found sometimes the line can catch round the holder.

    eels, how do you hold to unhook them.

    Me Nick, I didn't rejoin last year, very few trips out and have been after barbel. It is worth watching the video, failing that have a read of this: The National Anguilla Club (NAC) - The Eel Specialist - Eel Fishing Althogh i have only had a couple since targetting them, lying them down...

    Digital scales

    I prefer the excitement of seeing the arm going round and seeing where it stops. Mate has fox digi's and has no problem with them, however i have heard quite a few do.
