Korum Rover chair is ok, v/light , good on sloping banks but the legs dont fold, they can be removed or retracted if wished.

In hindsight , as we are on the coast, just inland fishing. I am sure it was ships at sea. but in the still of a summer night the noise seemed to be everywhere.

I have a Super Specialist Barbel, 1.75 and a 2lb top. cant remember what I paid, around £70.00 I think. Would not part with it.

One or two.freaked out and packed up a few times. Has anyone ever heard the night deisels?

put in some Fussels condensed milk in your sweet mix. you get the most incredible sweet baits.

Used Cell on the gt. ouse, and had a good Barbel on it.

Oviously a contentious issue. I am not telling any Angler to change anything in their style of Angling for Barbs. Its a point of view which I am entitled to. As are others. To get arsey about it is stupid.We live in a democracy that allows free speech. What are you going to do if you meet me on...

There is not the science to show either avenue is better than the other. I think its in the mindset of many anglers today that they will do what the hell they wish in their angling, whether that be right or wrong is of no consequence to them.. It is as I stated a point of view. If you differ...

Points of view, using carp gear for Barbel is like using sea tackle for the job,its just plain crude. Maybe I am Purist.,

I think using Carp rods is unsporting,, crude and just plain brutal and bone idle on the part of that angler by not doing his research and finding out just how things are done. Has any body actually used chod rigs for Barbel.

When asking friends to come along Barbel fishing they often say, I will use my Carp rods and 30LB braid, I say no you cant do that, its not illegal, but i believe in using the right tools for the job so Carp gear for Barbs is an anathma to me. What is the consensus among other Barbel fishers?

If a tree is not available what would you recommend fixing a rope to on a stteep bank.? a dog spike looks inadequaete.

Try the high bank at Longham. you cant miss it, you have a couple of islands in front of you. Most peop-le give it a miss because of the high bank. just work out your fish landing area. And keep your head down, they w3ill see you..

Teme Severn, that was years back, a really good range of bait. I think I caught my 1st Gt. Ouse Barbel on their bait.

Thank you Paul,down strem looks interesting. A buch of lads from here in Kent have been doing trips to Birts, one of them did mention you. His name was Paul, sadly C got him in January. Still doing research for my trip. My Barbel catches have all come from fishing next to tree overhangs and/or...

Staying at river and steam lodge in july, I gather they have 1/4 mile fishing. A friend of mine recently deceased stayed at Burts, he fished down stream a bit where there were trees which gave both fish and angler cover. Is this bit on Burts ticket? Also who has the bit downstrem of River and...

Is there anybody out there using one of these rods? how do you find it in use?

On my last visit around ten years ago the Severn was in flood. We stayed at Stans in Bewdley. There was a match upstream where I intended to try to fish but the guys said they had precedence. I talked to a couple of them and watched., those blokes were deadly, all fishing the feeder and...
