    Good advice Richard. But how could you forget Masham. Still close to the river, but the home of the Black Sheep brewery and they do tours.

    Landing net head

    The extending handles are very good. I replaced my Gardner 3mtr with the D.V. Lighter, strong and no problems with the locking mechanism.

    Drennan Acolyte Specimen Rod

    These tactics would never work for me, been married too long. She knows all my little tricks and only falls for one when she needs me to agree to something she wants 😂. It's called "married bliss".

    Seriously, I've had frozen hemp for two years plus and when defrosted has looked and smelt fine. So I would say use it.

    Frozen Hemp

    Martin, I understand your anguish. As I fish often, but rarely get a bite, I would be happy to relieve you of these products. 'cuz if I chuck it in it won't make any difference to my chance of catching 😄.

    Spam

    Try the Korum meat screws, they hold the bait really well. Though I usually use bacon grill now rather than spam because it is a bit firmer.

    Broken JRC Chair - aluminium welder in Wakefield area?

    Hi Neil, Try searching for metal fabricators in your area. Most will be just steel, but I bet if you ask one they will know of a local guy who does aluminium.

    Have a look at the Tackle Box pole. Equally as good as the Gardner, but much lighter.

    Best wishes to you and your lass, hope she is up and about soon. Don't make too good a job of your duties or you might get roped in when she is fit again ! Like yourself, I am really looking forward to getting on the river soon.
