    Reels (to go with that full armoury of rods)?

    I got a pair of 8000D's in the end,I didn't think the 6000's were quite up to the job:D As for where to fish I think Dr B is right in fishing to features & if you cant hit 70yds when the need arises your limiting your options imo.

    Would you ban the use of braid?

    In the small group of friends I fish with (all braid users) not one of us has seen any sign of damage to the well over 700 barbel we've caught between us this season. To me this is the thin end of the wedge..I used to fish commercials & saw some mouth damage (barbless hooks only!) What next...

    Fishing article in Daily Mail

    I did the "auf wiedersehen pet" thing in the early 80's & the Germans treat us with contempt, they blamed us for all the crime & we had to go out as a group for safety..& we didn't even kill their fish;) Boot on the other foot the Poles & EE's are doing much the same thing work wise & from...
