im still using the Hinders with confidence, still work for me.

If you know the fish are in or close to your swim then I'd def go with little or no freebies.

Try them again H !

I think your post proves they most likely don’t exist here, wildlife get drawn to human population as there is readily available food source, in which case sightings and evidence would be plentiful. I also think the photo above looks dubious.

still using Ultima Power plus until it runs out !!

Im a pellet fan and I think it outfishes meat most of the time unless the meat os moving, try small pellets when the river is low Neil, works well.

Hi Mark, I fished the Teme today, will be on the Severn and Wye for the rest of the week, Severn will be Upper Arley I expect. Hope you catch a few.

what rod Jon ?

on the river every day next week Alan, starting Monday :)

i'm def giving her a go next week Terry, can't wait !

My tench campaign hasn't really got going with only 4 or 5 sessions so far, managed to get out today and had a lovely 8.06 first cast, turned out to be the only tench of the day but I did also get two very large eels, both easily over 4lbs, managed to unhook them both in the water thankfully !

to be honest I seldom use one unless its raining hard and banks are very slippery.

i think low rods and back leads are only the norm on low density "hard" venues. You won't see that on the Trent, Severn, Wye etc

yes they absolutely still catch lots of barbel for sure and I always take them, whether they out fish ordinary halibut pellets I couldn't say though ?

Trevor, match fisherman often make the feeder move after its emptied to move the bait downstream, this can often produce a bite so I don't see it as a negative at all.

If true then Im sure that would have made the news ? I can accept that there might have been an escapee or an illegal release of one but otherwise I don't believe they exist, there would be much more evidence imo.

agree Kevin, if you are prepared to join HDAA they have plenty of water but access is varied, they have one stretch at Holme Lacey where you can drive down to the river but that is members only, no day tickets. Letton Court is also accessible by car, really lovely stretch of water but that's a...

Stan's allows you to park behind your swim, probably the easiest access I know. It can get busy though.

yes you do dare dream Bill, its what its all about !
