I used the black pepper version a few times and caught on it. In fact I had more fish on this than the garlic version. I might just have a look at my local B+M

I did the same with spam last season and after bringing the bait in after well over an hour it still had a strong smell.

I picked up a prototype 13 foot rod labeled 'Leeda Epic Barbel' which turned out to be the Wychwood 13 foot Maximizer rod. A powerful progressive action and very useful on a flooded river with bigger weights.

I remember him posting many times over the years. R.I.P. Steven.

That is exactly how I think now!

Ironically I'm going back to how I used to fish when I first started targeting barbel, fishing one rod but running the line over my fingers so if I get distracted looking at birds ect I can feel the bite! Also quite often I find when I fish one rod now I'm thinking more about exactly where the...

Pure Luck Mike 😄

I'll have them please Richard. I can pay now PayPal.

I read many of his posts over the years on here. RIP John 😔

I've had a Fox Specialist Brolly for a few seasons now and its what I use when its blustery weather or if im night fishing till the early hours. Very sturdy and with the storm pegs in stays put! Only down side is the width at the top means I can only fit into my gardener rover quiver not my...

I have the 13 foot version. 2lb top and 2.5lb top Well it's actually labelled 'Leeda Epic Barbel' but is a prototype which was later released as Wychood Maximiser Barbel Rod.

Ive been using a back to back grinner knot for my combi links.

He most certainly 'stood out' from the crowd on the old BFW! 🤣 (Very Intelligent, and I'd say 90% of us mere mortals were left scratching our heads with some of his posts!) 😳

Yes I thought it was someone else pretending to be Paul Boote at one point!?
