    Memberships.

    Just the two for me, Ringwood and that middle Avon syndicate. These cover all my river fishing needs handsomely with the syndicate also offering some solitude and beautiful surroundings which almost defeat the need to catch anything, although I am still trying! Dave

    First crack at a maggot feeder

    I‘ll take half a dozen of those as well please, Rich. Any idea how heavy the next size up will be? If around 4.5 oz, I’ll take 6 of those too. Cheers! Dave

    First crack at a maggot feeder

    Thanks for the clarification Richard. The slightly heavier overall weight is not an issue, just that I won’t have any need or use for anything of 5oz plus on my local rivers. Dave

    First crack at a maggot feeder

    Would be interested in the 3oz Rich and possibly 4oz but nothing heavier as no real need down here on the HA and the Dorset Stour. Dave

    Lesson Learnt. Rod Posting

    Well, the package arrived safe and was even hand delivered at the door. Naturally, having said between 11 & 1 for delivery originally, the slot was changed to 12:30 - 2:30 and it came at around 2, so got there in the end, even if we had been patiently waiting for 3 hours since 11am. The correct...

    Lesson Learnt. Rod Posting

    Got an eBay delivery due today via Hermes, nothing breakable so should be okay. Interesting thing is that they’ve changed their name to Evri . Not usually a good sign when a business changes its name, particularly when the original one was so appropriate to its function. I can’t believe that...

    Unexpected catch, not bad to end the season.

    I agree. I’ve definitely had more pike on meat or (red) boilies in the last few seasons than I’ve had barbel. They do fool you initially but the regular short bursts of speed soon give them away. Unfortunately, having planned a season ending trip on Thursday, I came down with Covid that...

    Lesson Learnt. Rod Posting

    Looking at that list, Graham, I struggle to find much that you can send with any form of financial protection. It’s a hard lesson to learn but it seems that most parcel firms are only interested in small items and certainly nothing out of the ordinary that takes some care to transport. I guess...

    Glad it was of some use Clive. They also do matching tip and butt protectors, if you want to be a real tackle tart like me!!😉 Dave

    Photos of river scenes

    I’ve never had much from there either. Some decent chub from the straight immediately above it but tbh it’s a long time since I fished that stretch and one thing’s for certain, the HA is never the same from one year to the next! Dave

    That sluice is very familiar Stephen. Only problem with that section is it’s proximity to the Avon Valley Path! Dave

    Rod Licence

    It is my understanding that a significant chunk of the licence fee money is passed on by the EA to the Angling Trust for use in promoting angling and fisheries. That is the reason why many anglers either left or refuse to join AT, as they regard it as being in the pocket of the EA, although...
