    Shimano xt rb 6000

    I've a pair of them on my 'Trent' rods, so not been used much in the 18 months or so since I got them but I like them (although I am a baitrunner fanboy). They're certainly bigger than my GTE5000B's.

    Wading/Trotting Net

    Hi Chris, You're certainly right about the quantity of Barbel I'm likely to catch, but the stretch we're both fishing (DAC water?) did produce at least one double last year. The set up I eventually came up with is as little similar to yours but with a gardner throwing stick as a handle and a...

    Thanks for the input guys, I've been in touch with Harrisons and Steve Harrison has, very promptly, replied with this (below) which I'm sure you'll be interested in.

    Barbel Float Rod Blank

    Hello (and happy New Year), Can anybody point me in the direction of a new off the shelf blank (13ft minimum and 15ft maximum) for float fishing on the middle Trent. I know I could buy an Acolyte or similar but I've won a voucher for a very well known rod builder and I'm considering having him...

    Long float rods for big chub

    Does anybody know the size of the tip ring on these? I'm after a rod for Tench fishing with a slider float, my current Tench road (13ft series 7 carp waggler) has too small a tip ring (2mm) for the knot. Thanks

    Warm fishing jackets & trousers

    I think the secret to keeping warm in winter is salopettes, keeping the lower back/kidneys warm and draught free.

    Small/ medium river fishing - wait or rove

    I'm curious about how much, if any, bait you're all putting in if you're on a roving session. Is it wise/worth it to put loose feed in if you might only be there for 30 minutes? To be clear I'm not asking about any pre baiting you might do on the walk out, just what you do on a fresh, unfed...
