    River Tripod

    I have used a fox horizon pod for years for the situations you fish when a bank stick isn't viable..however it has one modification; the bottom leg assembly is replaced with just the one leg, via a simple brass male and female screw in insert. These could be purchased once upon a time from...

    Off the shelf Barbel rods

    I dropped on a Basia 2.25 last year for a paltry 130 quid. As is the 1.75 and the 2.25, it's an absolute class act. Imagine if Daiwa would let custom rod builders have the blanks and build customs......?

    Making your own bait.

    Something I did, when making boilies in 3 egg mixes was; instead of boiling, i steamed nstead. For me it made a far more attractive bait. Just a cheap steamer that had water at the bottom and heated via a gas ring.

    Rod Position Changes

    Only thing to remember; is if the angle of the rod and the line exiting, is more than 90 degrees, the greater the angle, the greater the risk of the rod being pulled in.

    Seeking a mini big pit reel - any suggestions?

    Yes very nice reels indeed, but when spooled totally unbalance the lighter Chimera 2 blank. If they were hooked up a 3.25 carp rod, well that's fine tbh. I have had a Ch2, an absolutely beautiful blank thats stood the test of time. Now you say at range, how far? You'd be very good if you can...
