    The best mono line I have ever used

    Gardner GT80 + for me 👌..Its very abrasive resistant and far better imo than my previous 'favourite' line which was Berkley Big Game.

    oohh at last its hit the fan !!!!!!!!!!

    I met a well known barbel angler a few years back and initially I didn't recognise he was the same chap on the front cover of a book I have. Anyway he seemed like a nice chap..very chatty and open, but later I began to realise that this chap didn't exactly stick to the rules! My admiration and...

    Drennan DRX Method Feeder Rod

    A brilliant river rod. I had one when they first came out. Lovely powerful progressive action and I had a fair few barbel on it up to low double figures.

    Daiwa tournament pro 13/15 match rod

    Hi Paul I've just bought a cadence 16 foot #2 off here but not had chance to use it yet. I'm thinking 0.17 Reflo to 0.15 should be a good match for the rod on my centerpin? I also bought a Diawa spectron 17/20 rod with a higher rating of up to 8lb line. The diameters are similar but the cadence...

    Clear main lines

    I know of an angler who uses bright orange line straight through for barbel and catches plenty of fish...Some good ones too! I'm convinced what spooks them more is swimming into line they 'can't' see.
