    Why tench is most favourite fish to catch?

    Bedfordshire, Cambs and Herts have all gone the same way Paul It's not just commercials that fill their waters in with carp, it's club lakes too. Lakes possibly to look out for that aren't regularly topped up with pond pigs will quite often be the ones that lay near to river systems and through...

    What are your targets for the new season?

    I have more wishes than targets. I wish we could have seasons like we used to 30 years ago. (looks like we're heading for zero rainfall in the east for April) I wish abstraction could be put back to what it was 30 years ago. I wish pollution could be put back to what it was 30 years ago. I...

    Lone Angler Trefor West Chub Rod

    My first true carbon barbel rod was a New Dawn. It too had a removeable tip ring,and came with a choice of two quiver tips that you could slip on. Are New Dawn rod company still a thing?

    Fitting Isotopes

    Re painting the rod top white, best not use gloss as it reflects light. For years I've just used Tippex, as it's simple to apply and easy to clean off and reapply and being matt, absorbs light, thus shows up better in low light.

    Best lightweight umbrella?

    I have the Fox and it IS an excellent product, though it doesn't fit into any of their quivers. I eventually bought an Aqua quiver., which is a perfect fit. Let's face it, if you are out on the bank on a wet and windy day, roaming isn't really a fun thing to do.

    Barbel migration

    They did a survey similar to this on the Gt Ouse some years ago. They tagged fish and followed their movement. Similar results. One problem was that they found very few barbel in this river. I wonder why. 🤔
