I’m sure you’re right, I’ve seen his rods and they are excellent quality. I really like the pair of Torrix that I bought but hindsight being the wonderful thing it is probably should’ve bought the chimeras for this time of year.

Thanks Kevin, look very nice. I was hoping to get a single rod, I suppose I could sell my chimera along with the Diawa's and buy a matching pair.

Hi folks, I'm still after a chimera 3 if anyone has one which is not currently in use on our flooded rivers. I have one but would like a pair. if I'm unable to find one then I'll have to decide whether to buy new and sell my original Powermesh PMS234B Barbel specials to finance it or just stick...

Hi Rob, Ill take those off you please. Ill PM you.

Thanks Rob, I fish further down and I know it’s been very high around and downstream of Newark. I really enjoy flood fishing and would normally have been down by now, unfortunately haven’t been able to find the time!

Hi Folks just wondering if anyone has fished the Trent since last weekends flooding. I haven’t had the chance to get near it but having spoken to bailiffs have been told some stretches are way too dangerous and unreachable due to floodwater. I don’t want to either waste a journey or miss a great...

I think so but I guess some don’t? I’m trying to thin out my rod collection.

Rods now reduced to £140

Aero match were tiny, I sold my late fathers unused last year to a chap who wanted it for small rod/river fishing for chub. I would imagine you may be able to find a pair.

Hi folks, just wondering if anyone out there has a Chimera 3 built by Bob the rod, ex of Fosters Birmingham. I have one of these rods and would like if possible to make up a pair. Mine is Black blank with cork handle and what I think is called a Wye butt cap. Many thanks in anticipation. Kevin

No worries, I haven’t advertised it but it’s here if you can’t get what you want. It’s rated for 150grams.

I have for sale an old Shimano Nexave 14ft extra heavy feeder rod complete with all tips, its very capable, not mint but no bent rings and works perfectly well. Yours for £40. I just don't use it.

I used to use Castizm br25’s on mine when I had them and thought the a good combination, plenty of winding power for those strong fish.

Hi Pete, I have for sale a pair of 2.25 Powermesh £150 if you're interested.Excellent condition.

First fish I had last year was a 12:10 on a river tamer 1.5 test curve rod. On the Trent 14’ of water under my feet, it took an age to get the fish off the bottom but from then on dealt very well. Unfortunately the barbel chose to hit that rod rather than the one I expected which was 2lb test...

There is instruction on you tube if you’re really stuck.

Diawa Powermesh 2.25 x 2. Now reduced to £150.

Drennan acolyte flourocarbon is the business.

An interesting programme and I don't for a second doubt his experiences. Trouble is there are other videos out there that show barbel spooked by flourocarbon yet happily feeding with coated braid in the swim. I guess that they're wild animals and as such their behaviour will vary day to day and...

Harrell pro match, I use 8lb through my connoisseur. It sits right on top and seems to knot well!
