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!

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!

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...
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...

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...
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!

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...
