There was a media announcement a few days ago, that Yorkshire Water, and another company, were heavily fined, a certain percentage of their turnovers. Ofwat (likely toothless tigers) have stated that the companies cannot pass these fines onto their customers. The share holders have to take the...
I've had a pair of Dave Lumbs C3's for some time now. Good rods for big rivers. They bend when playing with little if any hook pulls and cast decent sized leads. They're not long range casting rods, but there's not many circumstances, when I have the need to put a bait on the other side of the...
A leopard with a will would definitely take out a human being. Though a tiger and lion are on a different scale. There's even an isolated species of Bengal tiger, in a swamp environment in India, that has an extremely aggressive predation instinct for human beings.

Recently been fishing in Austria and was 'mullered by the mossies'. I didn't see that coming 🫣. Basic Savalon antiseptic cream sorted it for me when I got back from the fishing. I never use any sort of insect repellent on my skin or hands, although there seems to be good recommendations made on...
