Anyone bought 10KG+ of hemp lately, which is a good grain size and splits? I’m completely out and am nervous about spending £40 to £60 on something, which is crap. I notE hinders have been out of stock for some time.
I was watching PMQ's today, where Ed Davey asked a question relating to private water company boss bonuses and pollution sewage discharges. Whilst asking the question, he was heckled by Tory MP's and Rishi Sunak, totally ignored the question! Given the drubbing the Tories have just had in the...
I‘d personally have no faith in any of the mainstream parties to tackle this issue over the short to medium term. Remember that Natural Resources Wales (NRW), falls under the control of the Welsh Labour controlled Assembly. Out of all the devolved government environmental agencies, NRW are very...
Picked up one of these today:

I’d fancied one for ages, but £275 was a bit pricey, anyway spotted it at half price so rude not to. As a clothing brand, Country Innovation is well respected in the...

The main problem with all waterproof jackets is the taped seams. It doesn’t matter if it’s high quality gortex or some other material. When you walk to your swim, wearing said jacket and carrying heavy gear via shoulder straps, it’s constantly putting strain on the seams and they will eventually...
There was a half hour feature on the BBC News 24 channel earlier covering the River Wye and issues with Poultry Farming. I’ve checked on iPlayer, but it’s not listed unfortunately. Worth a watch if it’s repeated and I took a few things from it.
Mark Drakeford, the Welsh First Minister, did his...
I already own an Acolyte Plus float rod in 15ft and 11ft.
I’m considering a 13ft Acolyte Ultra, but can anyone confirm if it has enough backbone to deal with Chub to 4.8lb on small rivers, containing the odd snag/ overhanging willow?
