    Korum All Rounder 12ft 1.5tc. Review.

    Graham I originally bought a pair of these for tench fishing but I have been using one of them for floater fishing for medium size carp and have been very happy with it. Have had good fun catching fish up to 22lb and look forward to using it again once the river season is over.

    Vehicle of choice

    As with previous posts I also have a Volvo XC90 2019. Great car though it's a diesel but carries all my gear no problem. Drives well with various gadgets that I mostly don't use. Laughed when I first bought it as it has head up display and heated steering wheel. Now I love them and will have...

    Opinions on a starter centrepin and line advice

    For someone new to trotting with a pin there is one consideration I would definitely mention. The butt ring on the rod should be relatively close to the reel fittings. For me it makes casting with a pin so much easier. A couple of years ago I purchased an 11' Shakespeare to fish a small...

    Grayling

    Julian I fish the Test a lot and to be honest I get far more bites and fish on red maggot than I do with corn. I also found that Grayling don't seem to be bothered on hook size so I use ready tied Drennan Red Maggot Hooks size 14 with double maggot and the micro barb pressed down with forceps...

    New Drennan Acolyte

    Had a look at the New Drennan Acolyte Specimen Float 14' yesterday and it does seem a bit more powerful than my Plus with as previously mentioned that extra power in the lower section.
