    Float fishing Collingham

    Collingham club do have float only matches and barbel are often caught. If you speak to the bailiff he’ll put you on the more productive pegs. It will depend on river level to allow you to get close enough to the waters edge, having said that I absolutely believe that during the day the barbel...

    Fishing styles are like so many other things in life a personal choice. I like to think that I vary my approach in order to maximise results, inevitably based upon my intention of presenting the right bait in the right place at the most opportune time and in the manner that experience has taught...

    Drennan Acolyte Specimen Rod

    Gave my specimen a workout yesterday, 7 barbel including a double from a pacey swim. I did lose a very big fish after a 25 minute battle, I saw the tail only and it was huge. To be honest having gone all over the river it eventually sat down stream of me and I just could not budge it, simple...

    Drennan Acolyte Specimen Rod

    I have the 15ft specimen and have had carp to 16lb on the float from a snaggy pond and been very impressed with the power. By the same token perch to about 2lb are still pleasurable though the rods power is very evident. I have a 14ft acolyte plus which I look forward to using for chubbing.

    Mainline for trotting

    I use the Harrell but have recently bought the Korum glide, excellent buoyancy and comes off the reel beautifully. I used it recently as a leader fly dry fly fishing for river brownies in Scotland and it was better than anything else I've used and seemed far less prone to wind knots in really...

    Drennan Puddle Chucker Carp feeder as a chub rod?

    I bought a 12 acolyte commercial feeder after much research. It has a selection of fine tips designed for shy carp and has the backbone to deal with the inevitable kamikaze dive under the feet of big chub in snaggy waters plus being designed for reasonably light line it is also forgiving.
