Jim Carey rings a bell. Whatever her name she made lovely rolls. seem to remember hamburgers in a crusty roll with a slice of cheddar. Happier days.

The club waters on the upper Lea are fished very heavily during the day and one is regularly fished until midnight. Seems to be working.

Spiderwire for me. The latest one, I made the mistake of ordering by breaking strain, 35 lb, rather than diameter. I wanted something around 0.25mm. it turned out it was only 0.13mm. A new 8 strand version apparently. Not complaining by any stretch of the imagination, IIRC 0.25mm comes out about...

Just checked it out and the mountain warehouse stuff is more expensive than the M&S stuff. They call them high heat or similar. Online their website doesn't respond to merino wool searches.

Went for £46. A bargain for someone.

Get an Acolyte. There's a few appearing at sensible money. Compact is the best format for me but I'm sure the others are great too, if you'd like a 3 piece rod,

Personally I like the relative lack of anglers on the bank as I can trot daytimes and I'm likely to have a good choice of swims. Would rather the Otters hadn't been introduced but I can appreciate a river not subject to 24/7 angling attention from trophy hunters. Some locals have asked why it...

Suspect that firearms are necessary to scare them off.

Finishes soon on Ebay still cheap.less than 30 minutes Normark feeder rod. Fill your boots. Currently about £40.

Couldn't say but I'd imagine so. Don't like to interrogate club members too much. Thinking back, I think they were, some of the new soft stuff, could be wrong. I've had loads of Chub on deadbaits on wire and spinners and plugs though.

Occasionally fished a club stretch of the Thames and often would see people turning up after dark in the Winter. Turns out they were after the Chub. They always fished sprats and said it was rare to catch one under 5lb! They occasionally caught Barbel. Prawns are excellent for Perch, Carp and...

I certainly don't need anything more than a normal pair of socks with mine.

I once watched one take a rainbow Trout on the East Warwick res. At Walthamstow. The rainbow was at least 3lb possibly bigger.

https://www.chemistryworld.com/news/tyre-compound-driving-mystery-salmon-deaths-identified-after-years-of-chemical-detective-work/4012851.article Here it is. I'll start a new thread, this is important research.

Read a study done in Northern America studying why up to 90% of returning Salmon die when it rains. Groundbreaking new analysis found that the culprit was a chemical compound found in car tyres used to lessen atmospheric degradation of the tyres, gets in the road runoff. We've almost certainly...

I use braid almost exclusively and will select by diameter rather than breaking strain, usually 0.25mm equivalent to 8lb 'normal' nylon. This is normally around 30lb in braid although recently I bought some by b.s. 35lb and it's far too thin 0.17mm I think. Getting the correct diameter will mean...

On the upper Lea seafood of all sorts are effective. Cockles, Mussels, shrimps and Prawns all work.

I have a Drennan medium feeder gathering dust, 11'6" with 2 tips 1 1/2 & 2 oz stored in the butt. 3-5lb reel lines. Would need a courier arranging. Or collect north London.
