nash chair Been considering this chair what do you think?

roving kit Are the components of this kit all the same as the items that are available separate ? If so it appears to be a good deal chair looks the same as the lightweight accessory chair not sure the bag and quiver are the same as the separate items though. Did some more digging and the...

eels I do know there are some eels In the stretch I fish and they tend to be big 2lb + I have caught a couple on 15mm halibut pellets big black slimey beasts that snot your net up big style. Think It might be worth having an old net set up as a spare for landing these If using any form of...

I have tried the korum xpert hooks as I was a fan of there seamless patterns however even though the xperts are cheap at £1 odd for 10 as opposed to £4ish for pukka drennans and the like you get what you pay for mostly. I did find with the xperts you could feel the line grating on the inside...
