    Chasing chub....

    Best rod I've ever owned. Even though it feels softish has plenty of backbone and picks up line quickly on tje strike. Can't see me ever getting rid of it. Steve

    Recommendations for dead bait rods

    Think so. £40 for the pair, pick up from Reading. Bargain if you're local.

    Good fun. I remember going out at night fishing for them on a long tail boat. No lights, pitch black but great memories. Lovely part of the world. Enjoy. Steve

    Okuma Aventa 6000

    I bought 2 of the 5000 models from the same shop a few months ago. Paid about 100 quid for the pair. Very impressed so far 👍 Steve

    Thinking about a Yeti. Which models are worth looking at as a crossover fishing/family vehicle? Cheers, Steve

    Daiwa emblem br25a

    Hi Richard, First impressions.......heavier that I thought they would be but my rods spend 99.9% in the rests anyway 😁 Slightly bigger than i'm used to but spool size is good so bought them to use for the tench as well. I'll put some line on at the weekend and I'll be trying them out 🤞 Cheers, Steve
