Agreed.

You need a 2nd mortgage these days to fish that stuff all the time. I remember when it was a quid a tin.

5 for me. BAA KFAC Derby Railway Lower Sev Club WA syndicate. Might drop the last one though, not been this season, and a different bit of LS has caught my eye.

Might invest in some of those Rich. My RH9000's are battered, and the body actually split open as the screws or rivets failed. They're currently bodged together with a screw through the top.

It's a wonder that bloody awful swan woman hasn't been banging her drum again, and blaming anglers.

I swear I've seen one float past on the Lower these last few days.

Chaps - Considering treating myself, already sold on 6000D's, but what's the difference between the D and the DEU? It seems to me the EU version just has a smaller handle.

£70 a kilo!!! Ye gods!

Aren't they a non-backwinding reel?

I carry some as a change bait. I quite like them actually, glued on the same way as the old originals.

What a glorious looking place!

According to 'Jeff' over on the BAA forum, the final episode is at SS on the Lower Severn. I'd have hardly thought that will make fascinating viewing though really.

I spray my barbel reel line Terry, feeder/ledger, just makes things a bit smoother. I use this stuff.... https://www.halfords.com/motoring/engine-oils-and-fluids/lubricating-and-penetrating-oil/3-in-one-professional-silicone-spray-lubricant-400ml-776096.html

I use 3 in 1 oil on mine, and that's not very often to be honest. The bail arm roller get sprayed with silicone spray every time I spray my lines. Works for me.

Hope Jeff isn't reading Neil!! ;)

Good old capitalism. Most problems can be sourced back to it.

Managed to get this a few nights ago, very popular Warks Avon venue. The setting sun lit up the far bank gardens briefly after the rain.

The whole BAA administration system is in need of an update I think, night tickets, memberships. The forum also, is home to several trolling lunatics, ask Mr Smart!!! At 40 quid though, any Midland angler would be mad not to have one.

Cracking fish Mick, an 11.8 is a good zander anyway, never mind from a canal. Interestingly, there's a debate/argument currently going on over on the BAA forum, where the forum village idiot is insisting canal zeds should be dispatched. :(

It was dreadful compared to the previous year Andrew!! Me personally, I'd like a 15, from anywhere, but the Lower Severn is the most likely for me - got with 3oz of it last season.
