    Good luck Graham, hope it does stop your quest to get back out on the bank👍

    Red Lion up for sale

    I think another thing going against it is the demise of the fishing on that stretch in comparison to it's heyday of 15/20 years ago.

    You can't fish the weir at Diglis though can you Mario? It starts below the new footbridge?

    River Trent running high

    Under normal circumstances I would definitely fish in those conditions, I do think this particular influx of water may be quite cold though and may affect them feeding, unlike the last influx we had about 3 weeks ago, when they were really having it! I'd look to fish closer in steadier water...

    Difference in specification

    Hi Paul I've got both the 6000Ds and Shimano 5500xtds. The spool size on the xtd is quite a bit bigger than the 6000D, I've attached a photo to give you an idea. The body of the xtd is smaller though, due to not having to fit the baitrunner gubbins in it. I prefer the xtds for the Trent for the...

    River Severn near Worcester

    Might be worth checking with Alan's Tackle Shop in Worcester. You can fish Pitchcroft by the Racecourse on a day ticket and I thought the Worcester Angling Society bit at Diglis was Day Ticket also, but might be wrong

    what size pellets do you use on hair rig

    Mario, Have you tried putting a bit of bait in and leaving it for a hour or 2 to encourage them to feed more confidently before you start fishing?

    Fox Specialist Brolly Bargain

    It can be used as a conventional brolly Paul or a 'shelter' type as it's got the storm sides to it and can be pegged down. You can also remove the central pole and fit storm poles on the front to give yourself more room.

    Retro baits

    Hi Connor I'll be honest, I don't use Glynn's baits but a couple of mates do and swear by it, especially the Bio Crab! They've used it for a number of years and do very well. If I wasn't happy with what I use now I'd be using his bait. Glynn really knows his stuff regarding bait making. It might...
