If you're into anthology style books buy Fantastic Fishes whilst it's still for sale, its a cracking read. Some tench but a bit of everything.

I'd agree on this, I've got both and think Red Eye is every bit as good if not better.

I'm using the ss2600, no baitrunner but I am happy to forgo it because I like the clutch and feel of it so much. Despite having them for years I've moved away from baitrunners recently, a lot of the time I was just using them out of habit. I ordered one of the larger nzons (distance 25?) and...

Just a follow up on this. I got rid of the Pulzars in the end. They are great for the money but I didn't like the lack of range on the drag. Found it ok for bigger fish but didn't like it for more modest ones. Even for bigger fish I'd rather have the options. That seems to be the main difference...

I’ve never seen those before, look like a fancier version of a super?

On the 11ft chimera 1.75lb I've got a Shimano Aero XR 5000 and it feels like a wand. For the 12ft no2 my Daiwa ss2600 feels well balanced for me.

Some cracking fish and pictures there. Welcome to the forum.

The carp book 'Waiting For Waddle' seems to be one of the ones that does genuinely sell for big money on a fairly regular basis, I've seen it go for over £300. I spoke to someone who had a copy from new and made a good bit of money on it, he said, 'It's not even that good' 😂

I don't know if they ever sell but there's some fully signed ones around for sale at £250. There's another unsigned copy up for £150 plus postage on eBay at the moment. Personally I just want to read books so I'd never pay extra for a signed copy of anything. I'd also generally take a book in...

I met him once at Wingham for an Anglers Net fish in, lovely man and a wealth of knowledge.

372 pages. It's a lovely book to be fair, lots of nice pictures, good stories and good stuff on techniques as well. I'm selling it on at what I paid for it, appreciate it is an outrageous amount of money. It's got some comprehensive stuff on Tring and the Thames which I wanted to read. This...

Morning all 1 copy of The Perchfishers - The Biggest Fish Of All for sale - like new condition £135 posted.

I spent a few years getting about half my bits from AD, it was just so convenient if wanting multiple, specific items to be able to get them in one place. In the last year or so though I made the decision to only use them as an absolute last resort.

Very sad to see. Hope things work out for him one way or another.

Careful David, I believe a lot of early experimenters with chickpeas went on to make other funny round balls. Without realising you might be turning in to Rod Hutchinson 😂

Hi David, glad its done the job. The XR in 3000 will be similar to the ninja but a bit lighter and nicer to use. As you've probably seen, it also has a spool reducer. Best of luck on the lakes and tarns.

I’ve got a few of the 3000 and one of the 5000 and a really like them. I’m sure you will get different opinions on what size but it will be personal preference I would think. They are really light though and personally I really like them compared to the shimanos I’d had for the previous 20 years.

Just thinking about this again, with the rolling meat I would think if it is ending up straight down the near side margin then again it needs more weight or some slack in the line. When the rolling meat is going well you can really feel it slowly trundling along. Loosely, I'd cast 45degrees...
