    What are your top ten angling books?

    Nearly all my top 10 would be carp books I think For non carp Tony Miles and Terry Lampard have written some very good books. Multi species books with a chapter on each fish don't seem to read as well for me. Here's another question though.... Who would you like to see a book from: Jason...

    Making your own bait.

    Solar S&O was one of the best flavours going. It had a high PH so was very different to most other flavours. I think a key ingredient is now unavailable so although many companies still sell a S&O flavour they won't be exactly the same as the OG Solar one. One of my favourite pop up mixes for...

    Wels Catfish - The Debate Thread

    Wasn't there a lot in the Wharfe when Knotsford lagoons flooded many years ago? Maybe they have just travelled down further and ended up in the Ouse? I'd love to catch a river carp though.

    Three piece barbel rods

    I have two Greys 4 piece stalker rods so you can use it at either 9 or 12ft. I think it's about a 2-21/4 TC so more suited for bigger rivers if fishing for barbel. Yateley Angling Centre used to do a Harrison stalker with a separate extension piece that are very highly sought after these days...
