    Best reel For trotting when casting distance?

    I still use the old Abu 501 and 506 reels for longer casting on the River. Best to only put 50 metres of line on the spool.

    Silt

    The areas i come across are more sandy feeling than silt and as long as near cover seems ok to fish. Although mostly Chub for me this year tbh!

    Yes I think I will wait until the spring to sell them and yes £300 a piece sounds fair as mint condition.

    Ray Walton Centrepins

    I have 2 mint condition Ray Walton Centrepins not the light weights. Any suggestions for what I should advertise them for? Can’t see any for sale at the moment to judge the right price. Thanks in advance.

    Boilie favourites/recommendations?

    Possibly a bit sweeping, but i have not known anyone to buy Mainline Bait. Most Carp anglers I have encountered over the years quietly working and spending their valuable free time fishing have mostly put their trust in quality baits such as Nutrabaits Trigga or BFM when Bill ran the company...

    Boilie favourites/recommendations?

    Mainline baits have only ever appealed to the Korda fan boys. Never met a Carp angler who knew what they were doing who used Mainline.

    Defiant MPS River Pod Wanted

    Thanks for the advice, Keith is not making them at the moment, it is the carbon fibre one he made I am after. I think he’s concentrating on his Totti titanium range at present.
