    Korum 2 rod Quiver. Rubbish Buy

    My quiver works great and like Dave I can walk comfortably with it balanced across my chest. I like the ruckbag and chairs aswell.

    Will the Barbel record ever be threatened....?

    Broke a record myself last night.... For the smallest barbel I've ever caught (around 3lbs) and it was the cutest fish I'd ever seen. Can honestly say enjoyed catching it as much as any bigger fish I've been lucky enough to land. Records are not just about biggest. :)

    Warwichshire Avon Chub

    Hi Graham, In my opinion anything over 4 1/2 is very good and over 5 could be considered specimen. Not sure what the record is but my guess would be high 6? Anyone know what the actual record is?

    Chair recommendations

    Same for me. Fits in most swims no matter how steep the banks are. Very light and comfortable to carry with ruckbag. Lots of add ons available. I like the mini side tray. Only downside with the light weight chair is that the back is not adjustable. Excellent bit of kit.

    Sun burn.

    Tend to be very careful when out in the sun. Been caught with sunstroke in the far east and not fun. If I do get caught I swear by this stuff. http://www.bananaboat.com/products/10114.aspx?cat=5&curBrowseBy=Usage

    Wear the boots !!!

    Had a wander down the river last weekend scoping out some new areas. Had left my boots at home but thought if I'm careful shouldn't be a problem. WRONG!!! Foot slipped and caught in a hole. Toe must have almost touch my shin. A few hours in casualty and luckily no broken bones but some...

    I would certainly second that. There's a pond near the river that I fish in the off season. I parked up and had a wander along the river looking for signs of life. Its looking a picture now with all the bankside growth and the lillies and reeds coming up. While I was doing this there was...
