    Wanted - Dave Lumb pike rods (longshot)

    I did call Dave last week, he said about three weeks for P1s but I’d want Fuji SIC if I was having a custom build and he may have to order them in. Tempted by the X1s too.

    Float rod for Trent barbel

    I have a spare Hi-S 15ft I would sell. Factory build, absolutely mint. I think they are great rods for barbel. I’ve only had high single figure fish on mine (custom built) but I’ve had a couple of 20lb carp too. Drop me a PM if interested.

    Trotting for Chub on the Dove or Upper Trent

    As a complete newbie to trotting for Chub, would any of the BMAA members be willing to recommend any suitable swims on the Upper Trent or Dove? I have chest waders but a few of the bits I’ve tried are way too deep for that and bank access is limited. Thank you

    Which centrepin to choose?

    OK, so firstly I am a complete beginner when it comes to trotting with a centrepin, but I am determined to give this a go on the Upper Trent for Chub (Barbel would be nice / hopeful) and the Dove this coming season.

    Free Spirit Float Rod advice... user experience wanted
