Hi
I've just moved house and I've got a silly number of barbel rods, some of which rarely, if ever, get used.
I've definitely got a free spirit barbel tamer 11ft 1.5tc available for sale:

It's a very handy small river barbel rod. I...

Try Horseshoe. Day ticket but nowhere near as busy as Linear.
Tench to into double figures and plenty of them.
Stunning place to fish too.

One of my local river's fish populations is thriving in spite of otters being an ever present in daylight. My own theory (with absolutely zero scientific evidence with which to support it) is that when the otters were first introduced the barbel and other fish were easy prey because they were...
This is very bad news about garlic spam - especially as I am down to my last tin :(
This sokolow might catch fish but it's not going to stay fresh in your garage all winter, is it?
I've used the fox specialist spoon net all season and really liked it....but the screw is no longer solid in the spreader block and I can no longer use it with confidence.

They blamed the demise on lots of things; ultimately that there was no longer a market for printed non-specialist magazine. I think...
I'm a keen pike angler and was deadbaiting with one rod last winter whilst i quivertipped worm for perch with my other rod on the Trent. My only bite of the day was a rod wrenching pull on the tip rod. I hooked what i initially thought was a barbel, only for a truly enormous pike to surface. It...
That's not really cricket mate. I clearly said I'd have it if it was an original and I'm happy that it is.
You can sell it to who you want of course but.....
Second recommendation for the korum shelter.
I probably only use it half a dozen times a season but it is brilliant when the weather is really bad and you don't have to walk far. It's a doddle to get up and down even when it's blowing a gale. Makes a wet and windy day on the Trent really...
