Undoubtedly sight is the lesser of their senses when it comes to feeding.

What weight of feeder, and set up of terminal tackle are you using?

I often use double 18mm baits with size 4/5 hooks on some of the more tidal areas of the Trent, but do tend to fish predominantly evening or overnight sessions. Many of my better fish have come in low, clear summer cons.

Wooden balls predrilled and soaked in any number of flavours, and a stiffish hooklink is your best bet.

I will probably get another pair if they come up at the right price, at the right time. :) Use mine on the tidal Trent for barbel, zander, pike and everything in between.

I wouldn't swap my original twin tip Neoterics for any other rod out there to be honest. Love them to bits. If you can find a pair - buy them!

PM Bill. Chris, much as I'd love them myself, they may be a bit OTT for the occasional angler that is my old boy.

I'm in Lincoln area Bill, happy to sort a deal inc courier if needs be, and possibly can collect as the old boy gets all over.

Looking for a pair of barbel rods for the old man. Ideally 2lb test, but will look at 1.75 > 2.5 Cash waiting for the right pair.

Would you post at all?

One of the above with spare spool. Good cosmetic condition and good solid working order, with excellent clutch/baitrunner engagement. £50 posted. (Also have a 6000b GTE for sale - same body size but different spool size).

One of the above with spare spool. Reasonable cosmetic condition bar a small mouse nibble one of the handles. Good solid working order, with excellent clutch/baitrunner engagement. £45 posted. (Also have a 8000b GTE for sale - same body size but different spool size).

I have used Gardner line on some very rocky areas of the Trent, and found it to be excellent. GR60 originally, then GT80 then moved to GT80+. Been very happy and see no reason to consider changing.
