    Severn river trust

    Removing the weir at Powick and promoting otters is hardly conducive to a happy River Teme..... What is already a pretty knackered river will be totally so.

    Severn river trust

    And people genuinely wonder why the BS is in trouble? The R&C chair immediately blazes in with a "holier than thou" attitude and insult. What a shame that the original post and subsequent comments regarding the policy of the SRT and their "supporters" has been pulled down like this? To...

    Yes...the gortex middle prevents the rain going through...and the outer can get saturated.... but to be honest it still is light enough and I don't mind as long as I am dry. I would rather have an outer that is bomb proof than worry about the outer getting over wet..... let's face it.... when...

    Premium clothing brands

    Horses for courses isn't it........ The Harkila Pro Hunter is a thick jacket...... In effect the gortex is the middle of the three lndividual layers..... One thing I have found when using a gortex outer is that it can snag and tear..... I will cry if I tear my 3 layer gortex but I am very aware...

    Hi Tony....... I have to be outside when others wouldn't.....as part of my job. As a result I have used many different brands over the years and now ended up with Harkila...... they are expensive and if you keep an eye out you can get basically new ones on ebay if you bide your time. They are...

    Hi Derek...... from what I can see on other forums you have to be a BS member to be able to win it....... however.... we will see. :)

    Read the thread again mate..... bored with this.

    Not sure what you are getting at Deano..... whether an angler is famous or not has no bearing on how much time they have to fish..... Unless the famous angler is full time sponsored and does not have a "normal" job. Then it is a matter of having to catch to fill web or paper pages!!!

    I was simply covering...before any asked...whether the fish that Lol caught had witnesses. The fish of which you talk is huge...no doubt about it, the point I am making is set out in my last post...that's all. Stephen....I have nothing to do with the BS per say....just that I wanted to...

    Yes...pretty daunting isn't it Neil when you sit and look at it...... Oh......Lol Breakspear can hardly be described as a "lucky" short session angler...... :) however he does not spend every waking hour fishing so there is the conundrum..... where do you draw the line? At some point, as I...

    No....not joking.... Lol's fish for the area was huge... And it was witnessed by two anglers too. I am sure that if you spent most of the week fishing a potential area after a period of time, probability states you would eventually catch the biggest..... Numbers game..... In Lol's case he fishes...

    I don't know...... I don't and will not be able soon anyway.

    For the most notable Barbel catch of last season........ my vote would go to Lol Breakspear's middle Severn fish of 13.10. I know bigger fish have come from other rivers but a fish of that calibre is really remarkable from the middle Severn. Voting is restricted to BS members so don't forget to...

    I have had the same problem....but it does appear soft inside so I hope it is therefore unviable!

    End of an era or dawn for change?

    I haven't ever been able to see the page??? Let alone be on it... :D Just read your post again.... That sums it up then.... I was never on there because you do not want to be put on the spot..... Mods...get your delete button ready...... ####

    Oh and The River a Telegraph page,according to a mate, is supposed to be an open page so if you can't see it you have been blocked.

    End of an era or dawn for change?

    Hi Howard.... Hope all is well and the rod bends well... I think I need to put some facts right here..... My disappointment with Steve was purely to the lack of support when I came up against the wall caused by another committee member( mods...I am being very careful so give me a chance). At the...
