    Up or down, tight or slack ?

    Rod position is always determined by the flow for me. The lower to the water I can get the rod the better as I'd prefer as much of the line to be on the bottom as possible. I use to 3-4 tungsten droppers around 18 inches apart on the mainline and fish a fairly slack line. I always fish shortish...

    Pre-baiting

    I have a friend who lives on the Thames, probably half a mile at least away from 'public access' in either direction and who has had some success prebaiting boilies close in for the carp.

    New Thames Barbel Record????

    Apologies. I read the blog and didn't realise it was a thread started in 2013, as Neil mentioned above it was someone posting yesterday that took it to the top! Should have checked more thoroughly!

    Grayling

    Stunning fish, I'm sure you're over the moon! I might venture down to the thames tomorrow as temps look good - the surprise would be if anything took an interest in my hookbait! As many have said though, that's the reason we love fishing rivers!

    Hemp oil

    I have a few bottles from the last special left over. Out of interest, what do you use it for? I glug boilies, add it to anima feed pellets I buy from a feed merchant but that's it.

    Premium clothing brands

    Hi all. For those who are using ecwcs jackets can anyone recommend mil-tec over helikon or is there not much to choose between the two? I'm looking at the fleece lined jackets and theres about 30 quid difference as the mil-tec is on offer. Thanks in advance.
