Thanks Clive, I already have a set of those. They are just a little too modern for my collecting tastes. Thanks again, Bob

HI Sean, Try Smeatons caravan park just outside Newark on the old river (Trent). They have 7 swims of well made pegs. They allow night fishing & it fishes well in the dark. There are other areas that I could recommend but they don't allow night fishing. Lets us know where you end up & how...

Hi Folks, I will lift this one to the top again, so here's hoping for a bit of action this time! Rummage in that shed & look through that old tackle box. Bob

Hi Martyn, What an evocative account of what sounds a thoroughly enjoyable trip. It certainly sounds like the fishing is a lot harder than the early days on Nasser. I took my son on a post uni treat back 1997 and we caught 120 perch as well as bagruss & vundu cats and a few tigers. Back in...

SeaSpin spool John W, My problem has been solved, thanks to you John. Many thanks, Bob

John, You have mail. Nick, I agree with you. Bob

Hi Chaps, I am looking for a spare spool for one of my early Shimano reels. Has anyone got a spare or even a basket case reel with a good spool. Thank you in anticipation, Bob

Jason, You have mail, Bob

Hi Robert, It was £400, plus I think £25 for the line-guard. A lot of money though it is a limited edition of just 25, & superbly made. Could I justify it? Yes I can, 'cause I wanted it! Bob

And they work very well too! One of many that I have caught on my 'Barbus' since I took delivery of it last month, Bob

Chris, Ah, Soul! Bob

Barbel on Pin My current barbel PB (13.01) was taken many years ago on Cane & a Chris Lythe centrepin. In those days just about all my barbel fishing was done in the 'traditional way'. One season saw me catching well over 300, mostly in this manner. In about 2004 something came over me & I...

Hi Martyn, The Olympic is same rod as the B James Avocet but without the fancy intermediate whippings. Because it is not so 'flashy' it is probably not so desireable, though it is a much rarer rod. They were often the prize rod given away by the News of the World for the best coarse fish...

Hi Tom, I have a pair of original Aero GT4000's in superb condition. I believe these are identical to the 4500 but with less line capacity. I view of the condition & the desireability of these reels I will be looking for £100 plus P&P. Bob

Paul, I really did enjoy that, what a good story teller Chris is! Thanks, Bob

Hi Robert, The rod holdall arrived 30 mins ago & it seems a good bit of kit in extemely good condition. I guess it will take a bit of getting used to but will offer good protection to my rods etc. Many thanks, Bob

Hi Robert, Check your PayPal account & you will find payment as agreed. Best regards, Bob
