    angletec dynamic lead system

    Ye gods Have a think! It’s called a bolt rig cos when a fish feels the ***** of the hook it gets its arse in gear and moves off rapid thus hooking itself against the inertia of the weight. How much difference in hooking potential does the 10mm rotation of the lead around its centre of gravity...

    Fleece Recommendations

    No way Ade; the clamping bolt falls out of the locking mechanism so you cannot wack it on the head with any accuracy. I recommend fishing with your mate. You know the one that advises us on extreme weather survival techniques.

    Patrolling for poachers

    Alex I have been listening to it for about 50 years now. Always an excuse Very little action from the AAC Apathetic Angling Club. Of the hundreds of moans about "I saw a poacher and no one has done anything about it" posts on here, how many actually phoned the EA and asked for the all important...

    Patrolling for poachers

    You’re all the same you moan and groan and do nothing. Anyone other than Stevo, Crooky and perhaps one or two others ever had the commitment to organise themselves into a club bailiffing scheme or is it someone else’s job? I posted a link a while back about the prosecutions on the Mersey...

    Landing net handle

    Ade gave me a Westy (lone angler) handle; I use it all the time. Another mate gave me an old pike gaff head; they make a superb boat hook. Together they wind the pike police up a treat. It may only be a pound; but a pound here and a pound there and your soon imprisoned by you gear in one swim. I...

    angletec dynamic lead system

    Dave Read Ade's post again mate, he says use a safe rig and it will unload on the bottom! A bit of tile held by two lacky bands will pull off with very little effort. I’ll bet there are 50 posts or more on facebook about him using killer rigs already.

    into dark bait.

    Hi Malcolm I am not advocating doing it mate, Eels are a protected species so its illegal and in my book quite rightly so! I hate them, hideous creatures, but vital to the balance! I just want to find a bait that Anguilla Anguilla and Brim hate but works like magic for everything else.

    into dark bait.

    I believe you are partially right about the fyke netters Dave. However the current eel situation suggests they are not solely responsible. The tiny bit of up to date research suggests that a realignment of the Gulf Stream and the North Atlantic drift are responsible for the increase. Double...
