    Mini Baitrunners

    Budget Alarms

    If you really want budget have a look at THESE if they turn out crap you can hardly moan about the price. I reckon a tin of luncheon meat will soon be more than that!

    Bank tackle hook sizes

    I like the BT hooks for big baits but I don't think you can beat the Drennan super spades or specialists for maggot/castor/smaller baits for targeting big fish. My PB barbel fell to a bunch of maggots on a drennan ss size 14 Horses for courses!

    Drennan Tench and Bream 2lb TC Mk2 version x 2

    Thanks Bill. I know I can go south and fish linear on ticket for a good chance but joining the club does have a certain appeal, strongly considering it. I'll make a definite decision come spring, I do have a campaign planned on my syndi' now that all other activities have been aborted, mainly...

    Drennan Tench and Bream 2lb TC Mk2 version x 2

    Is there a northern region Bill, I've just been having a browse on the website but couldn't make out where the regions are? I need a kick up the arse with my fishing and I'm determined to get a double figure tinca this year. My syndi' which I re-joined last year (but failed to fish) could...

    2 match rods

    A trait I'm aware of that can be countered by a small amount of lead and araldite in the end of the butt. I did a dry run with mine and a small amount it wasn't. I forgot to mention the over engineering includes a really short handle (to enable passing the rod across the body between hands, god...

    2 match rods

    Thanks Richard, I've been on the look out for a decent stick rod. My current Greys Dave Wesson spliced tip from the same era is very top heavy, too many rings (to keep the line off a wet blank) and over engineered, a break in the tip section repaired with a spigot compounded the matter so I used...

    2 match rods

    Would you (or anyone else) happen to know how the Shimano compares to the Drennan stick float rod from the 90's? And where are you based? you mentioned distance but unless I'm missing the obvious, I can't a reference. Ta!

    Delkims For Sale

    My son would have snapped them up but xmas is coming and he has kids to cater for. I rang him and he was in two minds. I've been considering some myself but my trusty old SX digitals are still doing the biz ok. Enjoy them!
