    Severn Trent now have a real time storm overflow map. It's a long way from full disclosure as to the magnitude and frequency of discharge of untreated sewage but it's something. https://www.stwater.co.uk/in-my-area/storm-overflow-map/ I think I saw links to other water companies equivalents...

    Problem with Baitrunner Lever on Okuma Epix Pro 40

    I'm watching this thread with interest. I have one that's hit and miss on whether the bait runner works or not. It would be great to hear if there is an easy fix.

    Tight lines for new season everyone

    I'll be on the upper Trent at dawn or soon after. The river is looking great, there aren't many fish around but there's always a chance. Tight lines to all, hope you have good seasons.

    Making your own bait.

    Huanzhou, sorry to be pedantic but that's not right, I'm a Process Engineer and know about this topic. Steam is not at a higher temp than boiling water. Pure water boils at 100 DegC at sea level, the steam leaving the water is at 100 Deg C and actually invisible at this point. It condenses in...

    Drennan Puddle Chucker Carp feeder as a chub rod?

    That's my point really Julian, there seems to be a lot of rods in the range that potentially could be identical just with branding to specifically target the different potential users. All the rods seem to get good reviews so I don't think i can go too far wrong.

    Drennan Puddle Chucker Carp feeder as a chub rod?

    I'm in the market for a second hand 11ft feeder rod for small / medium river chub fishing. My first thought was a drennan series 7 1.25lb avon twin tip but they dont seem to come up very often. I don't really need the avon top as I have a harrison avon that does that job. So that got me...

    The Bearded Tit's Podcast - Returning Sturgeon to Britain

    It's not as far fetched as it might appear. They are migratory and are being re-stocked in France and Germany. There have been catches in our coastal waters. The podcast is interesting, well worth a listen.

    Tench 2024

    Yay, after quite a few sessions this spring chasing after tench with only bream to show for my troubles. I finally managed to get a couple. I'm delighted.

    The Bearded Tit's Podcast - Returning Sturgeon to Britain

    I've been listening to this pod cast to today whilst failing to catch any tench. I found it intriguing so thought I'd share. In this podcast Jack speaks with three guests from the UK Sturgeon Alliance in the form of Jenny Murray from Blue Marine Foundation, Hannah McCormick from London...
