The point I was making regarding the Otters is that the naturally wild animals in a much wilder river behave in a much wilder manner, eating to survive and working harder at it in order to do so. By comparison the released otters are bred, fed and achieve a larger size prior to release into in...

Slightly off topic I know but possibly of interest. We have otters on the nene and it is not uncommon to see three or four individuals throughout the course of a days fishing, they are not in the slightest bit bothered by anglers. In October my wife and I spent a week on the Wye and within 20...

New Summer 2023, used very little and apart from the plastic having been removed look like new. Harrison built, Fuji reel seat and stainless and rubber butt cap, Kigan rings. Will provide photos to genuinely interested buyers.

I am not 100 percent however both are Harrison and I can only say that the chimera 3 is an excellent floodwater rod. I personally find them incredibly versatile, they out perform my heavier stiffer Diawa in difficult conditions yet somehow manage to be light enough to be a pleasure to use even...

No worries, I too like matching rods which is why I have three Chimeras, I couldn’t find one to match this so bought a new pair. I also have a mint pair of Torrix 2.25 which I bought last summer but I’ve barely used them!!

As promised. Whereabouts do you live. I may be able to meet if the rod is what you want.

Hi Chris, will do. Whereabouts are you?

Hi Chris, I have an older Chimera 3 which I believe is the same blank. 12ft, 2.25 test. Black finish, fuji rings and reel seat. Full cork with a black fuji wye butt cap. I know its not identical but it'll be very similar I'm guessing. I'd let it go for £150 if that any good to you?

No I was not throwing it back! My left foot was stuck in the rocks and as I stood up after unhooking this small barbel I nearly went in with it. All I can say in my defense is that it went in like Tom Daley and had I followed it would have been more Daley Thompson!! For anyone concerned with...

Hi Neil if it helps I have an old Nexave 14ft feeder rod, it will cast up to 150 grams. It’s complete but not mint but if it helps get you started it’s yours.

Just a heads up if anyone is interested. Bristol Angling centre have one of the original AU models in stock. The rod is 2.25 tc 12ft. They found two old stock, I’ve nabbed the 1.75. £99 delivered. These are not the current lighter builds and come in the padded sleeve with two tops and two white...

For sale a pair of Torrix 12ft 2.25. Brand new in Summer of 2023. Harrison built. Fuji reel seats, Kigan rings with Fuji stainless and rubber butt caps. These rods are in immaculate condition and have been used no more than half a dozen times since I bought them new. NOW £400.. I will send pics...

Only joshing, apparently they’re catching in the fields along the Trent. Looking forward to it dropping a little

Do you think 2.75's and 5oz will do it ??????????

Should’ve read fish

I use 12lb for most of my barbel fishing, 15lb if I’m fishing heavy and it’s really heavy flow/ lots of debris on the Trent. I had Fisk take me into rocks, trees and the nettles and briars on flooded river banks and haven’t had it fail on me yet….probably regret saying that now! Good value very...
