Hi Steven Can I have 'The complete barbel angler' Regards David

Kevin I know someone who may be interested..I will get back to you ASAP. (Is there a carbon 3oz tip also?) Regards Dave

Something I think is very relevant here is that social media has clearly had a negative impact on certain stretches of river I have fished. Its a double edged sword imo when anglers are posting on YouTube as I believe it will benefit clubs by encouraging more anglers to join that follow these...

Many thanks Adrian 👍 What many anglers don't do is put a post up when they blank!..And I do blank just like anyone else 😆. But I've found it may help others to mention the conditions I was faced with, then they can decide for themselves. Regards Dave

This is something I've noticed on here (lack of reports). And I think it's partly down to the way many barbel anglers post their catches these days..Facebook or Instagram. I very rarely post my catches on fb now and have come off the many river groups I was part of. I grew tired of the attitude...

I use the Korum Y rests mostly. Deep enough and strong enough.

Hi Phil, I'll have them please. Dave

Ben you have a pm regarding the shimano xt 4000

I needed a new winter jacket so decided to go for an offer that was on at my local tackle shop. I got an Avid Arctic 50 suit, which is the salopettes and jacket. The Salopettes are far more waterproof the my lidl ones (as expected) 20,000HH rated, and quilted. Very comfortable and nice warm...

I remember Berwick Kaylor chucking Wagon Wheels at the Panto at York Theatre Royal 😆 They were bigger!..and I'm sure they had a hole in the middle??

You won't be disappointed 👍

Hi Jeff. Well I can honestly say my Korum 11 foot 1.75lb rod is one of my favourite. It's got a powerful progressive action and the tip isn't too fine so I can fish the rivers when extra water is in, and use weights up to 4/5oz. At £45 it was a bargain and I have several other rods worth far...

Yep I remember this one 🤣

We've all gone in at some point and it is a shock. I did something very similar to this chap and stepped on what I thought was the edge of the bank, only to find it was grass over the edge of the bank! I ended up falling down the bank and on my back (in shallow water luckily) but it was a very...

Likewise Gavin I use the same quiver for mine too 👍. And it's a good brolly for when it's windy and really legging it down.

The Drennan Specialist 1.5lb is a lovely rod. I bought one off here a short time ago and had some nice barbel on it so far with maggot feeder tactics.

I had a red letter session last Friday when it was mild, chucking it down and blowing a gale. The river was up and a steady temperature. I had 7 barbel in an hour twenty then 3 more later on. I returned later and it was completely different conditions..Full moon clear sky and no wind at...

I've got the Lidl bib and brace and so far I'm very pleased with it and a damn sight cheaper than my old esp one. Nice and warm and the fleece pockets are good.

Dean you have a pm

What a fantastic fish and well done Josh. And good man Richard for keeping him interested after those blanks!
