    Best boilies.

    I do like sonubait's stuff, very good bait. Mind the cheesy garlic oozing ones though they turned my fingers yellow for a few days. Had quite a few barbel on them though.

    Best boilies.

    I have tried many different varieties of boilies, off the shelf, frozen (thawed) own made and have never had a barbel on them. So I don't use them. To be honest I keep a few in my bag just in case. But I don't hold much confidence in them. It was actually a toss up between a boilie and...

    Mono hook link

    Ive been using 30lb dyneema spectra braid for all my river fishing. (10 quid flea bay) It's never failed me tbh, however I did a breaking strength test with my Ruben Heatons and it snaps consistently on 18lb of tension. Which I know the majority if not all braid have a much lower breaking strain...

    Motivation.

    Tbh. I'm always motivated for fishing. I really get excited. Im like a big child. I only live 16 miles from the severn, so it's not too far. Barbel are pretty much the only species I target other than when I take my son down the canal. He is 9 and he loves it as much as me. I can't wait to see...

    Carp/Barbel Scadle?

    What the actual f@#k. I could really see myself with that setup next to the river... NOT!!! Carp angling is getting daft now. Baitboats disguised as ducks, motorized barrows, now this! Carp angling? I'd rather shit in my hands and clap.

    Whitlock landing net. Replacement net.

    Hello everyone. I am after a net replacement for my whitlock. 18x 24" fairly deep decent size mesh holes. I can't be dealing with trying to land a fish in the current with inadequate holes for the water to pass through. Might aswell use a plastic bag. Can anyone recommend a good quality net...
