According to their website, the Korum Fibreglass 50" brolly is 3kg, which doesn't sound especially light to me. I'd be intererested to see how the Masterline compares to that. The Korum Fibreshield is 3.7kg, but that's an oval type rather than an ordinary brolly.

How do you play the fish with your rod in one hand and the brolly in the other??? ;)

David, my Korum Neoterics with the 2.2lb top will just about lob out a 7oz lead plus 3oz of meat. A beachcaster is designed to chuck out a heavy lead upwards of 100yds, I only have to lob mine out 18 yards.

I've had a 7oz lead cluttering up my tackle box for a couple of years — and on Saturday I actually used it. I was fishing the lower Severn (about 6 feet up and pushing through) and my 4oz grippa was struggling to hold in the middle of the flow. On a couple of occasions it did hold for a while...

:D:D

I caught a full-size keepnet from the River Anker a couple of years ago. Sadly it had some holes in it or I'd have kept it. Deano was fishing for baitfish a couple of weeks ago and had the biggest catch of the weekend .... me! He hooked me right in the little finger when casting :mad:. His...

My Okuma Epix Pros are have a fantastic clutch and they are great reels — but let down by an erratic baitrunner switch. Sometimes the baitrunner doesn't engage properly, so you have to pull the line to check every time you switch it on, which is annoying. I've forgotten to check it occasionally...

Thanks, guys, looks like you are spot on with a female Mandarin, that stripe is distictive. I'd love to have seen the father! A bit of Googling suggests they are quite common on the lower Severn but not on the middle (this was near Bridgnorth), but there is the odd pair in the area. Nice to see...

I had these ducks in my swim on the Severn the other night. It's not one I'm familiar with — any ideas? One of them looked like it was probably the mother. The stripe on its head was stronger than it appears in the photos, the camera doesn't seem to have caught it well.

Now I have this image of the Queen walking round the lake with her wellies and her Corgis, selling day-tickets, lol!

I have a pair of the old Neoterics. Admittedly my casting isn't great, but I wouldn't feel confident of chucking out 10oz of lead with them. 2.2lbs sounds a lot, but they've never felt like you could chuck out the big weights.

Fox has relaunched this classic river angler's chair and I've just bought one. So far I'm impressed. It's been considerably redeveloped over the previous version, but whether that's a good thing depends on the angler. The biggest improvement in my opinion is that the angle of the front legs...

My screws became loose. Used a bit of superglue which has been fine for a couple of years but they've worked loose again, so I'll try something like an epoxy resin this time. About 3 years ago, the spreader block broke. I'd landed an 11lb barbel from a high bank, and when I came to unscrew the...

I have some Good Oil which I bought for the high Omega3 content as my doctor tells me my "good cholestrol" levels are too low. I've never tried it for fishing, how do you guys use it? Do you glug your baits in it or pour a little into your groundbait mix? Or add it to your cooked hemp?

I love these threads on pins :D:D I was one of those that bought that cheap tat from Dragon, a great way to give the pin a go ... and now I have a Speedia as well (the thin end of the wedge???). I have a sort of love/hate relationship with them: I love playing fish on a pin, you feel much more...

I have some Bison waders, I paid £75 from Fishing Mad on ebay which is a decent price for breathables and the quality seems good, though the stocking feet are neoprene so your feet still end up swimming in sweat. The down side is the colour which makes you look like a fluff chucker, and they...

I caught one on Tuesday that was sort of on rolling meat. Okay the river wasn't quite full-blooded floodwater, but a good few feet up and coloured. I wasn't specifically rolling meat, but in one swim I cast straight out into into a strong current and was allowing the current to sweep it round to...

I've used Bacon Grill for rolling and it does seem to stay on well. I still don't catch much on it though, but I imagine that's down to my technique :o
