Loverly - Well done Chris

I know that swim :o

I don't know if I could do a full English every day !! :)

Great post Ade Angling's about challenges - if there's no challenge, there's no point.

MC nice ;) , but I've got something arriving next week so revolting posties are refusing delivery unless PPE is stepped up to nuclear handling levels. I've this hunch - single hook bait, stinking like hell. I'm trying to work out where to store it - yes, by all accounts, its that bad...

:eek: I only use 10's for Dace 'n' Roach :D We only use what we have confidence in Neil, shame your experience now casts doubt in these hooks.

That's ok if you didn't pay single packet prices Bob. Think both I and Jon believe these designer 'Carp' hooks are over priced, and there's a good quality hook available without the markup. To compare ESP T-6 against the Rapier at half the price Micro Barbed Beaked point Straight eye...

Sure you'll find them ok mate

Jon - I think the Team Barbel Boilies have always been barrel shaped and so they call them nuggets. If this is the case they are still advertised BanksideTackle - professional fishing tackle shop I've never found the need for frozen baits so use shelf life versions I bought a bag a couple of...

I invested in a Gardner one for the new season - all looks good so far, and I've managed to land a few fish with it too :)

Thats not good news Neil. I'll be interested to hear results of your tests. I'd put that one down to a rouge. I'm slowly working my way through my second batch of these Rapier hooks without any issues. I fish a lot so the cost saving over mainstream hooks is worthwhile. Yesterday I tested a...

This may be if interest Ian. Personally though I use a local feed supplier dry particles - NSA Baits & Feeds

Lower Severn's the same Andy, or at least until later in the season. Mind you I've caught eels in December, on the river, during mild winters.

A favourite way of mine for Lobworm fishing when using a heavy lead, is to put a size 6 hook, straight through the pointy end :D (mouth) then out 10mm down. You can nip the tail off too if you like. This is an old Carpers trick to stop them from being ripped off when the lead crashes into the...

Distance from rod tip to lead/method feeder/spod (or whatever is being used) ;) 8ft is 'longish' so 'if I can get away with it' suggests a tree/bush free area behind

There's a little factory in China knocking out these chairs for all the big names (Chub, JRC.........) for about the same price, they're ok if you aren't XL or XXL :o Beware though that doing a 'Musical Chair' -'I'm sure it was just behind me' backward fall on to them puts enormous strain on the...

Caught on a rising Severn :)

:D:D A good ruse used on more than one occasion

Exactly - Which is why I always tell everyone I catch my big fish at Severn Stoke Doh :o

That there are Andy , which means you've got a head start :) Steve
