    Wanted Free Spirit Hi S Power Float 15ft

    Nick, I've been put off by the comments over the years of the weight of this rod, although to be honest, I've never handled one. I have used a FS rod and Cadence 15ft #2 (the latter is a lot cheaper, has a faster action but handled a big '8' quite nicely), both of which are lighter. Personally I...

    Thanks Jameel. That's why I'm casting a line here in the faint hope of one being released. :)

    best fishing shirt ? I think so

    Can't answer your question Paul, but just remember that the lightest colour (the one that some anglers might prefer for hot and sunny days), Oatmeal, does not offer the same sun protection as the others.

    Hook choice

    I've found curve shank hooks (various suppliers) very good.

    Split Cane rods

    Alternatively, get around the charity shops. I picked one up for a fiver and had a barbel over 8lbs on it, fishing the Trent. It bent wonderfully during the fight!

    Boot liner recommendation

    Buy some of this and make your own (especially if you're dropping the back seats to fit a quiver with 2-piece rods): https://www.toolstation.com/damp-proof-membrane/p17224#reviewTab This is big enough to make two...and a cheap way of doing it!

    Self taking photos

    Jamie are you using the rear-facing camera (selfie) or front-facing one? The latter has a much higher resolution. You can't see yourself on the screen but ten minutes of practice at home getting used to distance, stick height, and angles will have you sorted.

    Angling camaraderie

    Give him a couple of leads...then grit my teeth when I hear him cast his third rod out!

    Camera recommendations.

    I think the problem people have with WhistleCam is not the app but their choice of lens. If they take the picture in selfie mode (rear camera) the resolution isn't the best and the flash isn't great either. Using the front camera on your phone means you can't see what's on the screen at the time...

    Close season alternatives

    I've recently geared myself up to do some fly fishing and it's gone very well on a stillwater I have access to. However, today was my first sortie onto the River Nidd for trout and despite a tough day, with only one out-of-season grayling gracing the net, I did find several very promising...

    John Wilson Avons ££?

    Good rods for playing perch with on the quiver tips...very forgiving when those big stripeys shake their heads.
