    Fishing the swim next to someone

    I must be more use to it fishing club stretches on the Middle Trent where pegs either side can have an angler on them. I do like to arrive early on a certain stretch to bag the favoured peg (not before civil dawn in accordance with club rules) Most occasions fellow club members will ask if I...

    River tripod

    I like the setup @Chris Allcock if I didn't already own a Prologic Sky Pod I would take a look at replicating your setup, ideal for those on a budget or begrudge paying silly prices for over inflated kit. I am a bit OCD about digging the pods legs in when on mud/grass bank and when on rocks I...

    Pellet size.

    Just the right size for Kamasan Black Cap feeder, if you were trying a smaller offering, but with a higher frequency of casting - every 20 minutes. Might no work on every stretch, but on a well populated peg it does work. I would still use them when fishing a PVA bag, as Richard says gets stuck...

    Morning George, whereabouts are you, not sure I would trust Parcelforce when it comes to delivering a rod intact. Thanks Kevin

    River Wye North of Hereford

    @Cliff Turner Thank you, much appreciated, I will take a look at those. 👍 Sounds like I might need a float rod. 😁 'Another fishing rod ??' I can hear the Missus say. That is until I remind her how much her Hairdo, nails and facials cost compared to my £10 haircut, that and my fishing rod will...

    River Wye North of Hereford

    Have a weeks holiday booked close to Hereford and wondered if there was a day ticket venue close by with a chance of a Barbel. I am not familiar with the area or the River Wye so any pointers or tips would be most welcome - thank you.

    Your welcome Stephen, I was introduced to the joy of Barbel fishing by a very experienced Barbel angler so it's my turn to pass on the gesture. I can get you started, but it really is a journey of discovery, after a few seasons I am still at the beginning stage myself.

    Welcome to BFW Stephen, I live in Melton Mowbray and mainly fish the Trent East Stoke / Fiskerton. I would be interested to hear how you get on on the Soar as I have toyed with the idea of fishing it.

    Cadence CR10 Barbel Rod 2 Lb TC

    Thanks Paul, Have a few Cadence rods myself CR 10ft Wand feeder rod, CR 10ft No 2 feeder rod, CR10 13ft No 2 Match rod and CR10 15ft No 2 Match rod. Have been impressed with the overall quality and feel of the rods and certainly weigh in well above the price point.

    Cadence CR10 Barbel Rod 2 Lb TC

    Thanks @Kevin Wardle are your Cadence rods 1.75 Lb as I am a fan of floodwater fishing so went for the 2 Lb based on using the same T/C for the Korum rods.

    Cadence CR10 Barbel Rod 2 Lb TC

    As I have a major Birthday ending in a zero this year I thought I would treat myself to an upgrade from the Korum 12Ft 2 Lb TC rods to something a bit more mid range. The specification looks good (below) I would like to hear from those that have used the rods or a suitable alternative. Not...

    Rod suggestions please

    If you can find one Daiwa N'zon S 13Ft - 180g NZSF1303XXXPQ-AX is very good. especially for longer chucks where heavier leads are needed. Friend bought the Z version and returned it after trying the S saying the action of the cheaper S version was better or to use his words 'The S knocks spots...

    Ticket price increase.

    Evening Simon, Sent you a PM on MD about this. I won't be renewing this year, not down to the the price hike, made the decision on the basis that I have two other club memberships that gives me access to plenty of waters that are closer and easier to get to for me. Will say that although I...
