    New licence, got one yet?

    I had considered the direct debit set up, but was put off by a club member who, a couple of years back, had his account cleaned out because the EA had somehow taken the debit something like seven times. Besides, a stroll up the road to my local sub post office is on the way to the pub anyhow.:D

    New licence, got one yet?

    I don't think anyone's panicking, it's just that after having the current system in place for a few years now, the usual level of service has been well below par for whatever reason.

    New licence, got one yet?

    Just received mine after a wait of just over 5 weeks. Read in the AM that a "printing problem" was experienced for licenses bought between March 16th and 31st, whatever that means.

    Tench 2014 season.

    Have fished one of my club lakes on four occasions now, best tench 6lb 6oz, always in the same swim, the left hand rod being a float rod/centre pin set up, the right hand a quiver tip method feeder. On the float I've usually fished worm, the ledger 8mm boilies. The first and third visits...

    harrison rod

    I've visited Tackle Fanatics several times before they recently moved, having outgrown their old premises. They stock new items as well as used, most of the used stock is either a trade in or has been bought outright. My last purchase was a ,Fox twin tip barbel rod, unused by the previous owner...

    Paid for mine and my wifes in my local sub post office 3+ weeks ago. Still waiting, but as already stated, the receipts will suffice.

    Tench 2014 season.

    Had my first tench session last Friday, fished from about 7am to 2 pm, managed eight, best being around the 4lb guestimated mark. Good sport on a float rod and pin, all caught using lobworm size 12 and a piece of postmans red elastic band to hold the bait in place. Back on Wednesday hoping to...

    Shimano reel

    Neil, I totally agree regarding cranking power, if it has the same gearing as the DL it would be a struggle. I think possibly Shimano realised they'd missed a trick by discontinuing the 5000 size and maybe are trying to redress the situation, but for heavy feeder situations requiring good...

    Shimano reel

    The advantage with the Aero X is that it has a larger spool diameter allowing for better casting and retrieval whilst retaining a small light body. It comes with spool reducers so that you don't have to load with more line than is necessary. The DL4000FA is fine on small rivers though, horses...

    Banksticks

    I use 50" Dinsmore Spiral Points. These extend to 90",which should be enough. If you use an alarm then the angle of this can be adjusted with a Wychwood alarm angle adaptor. Fox make a similar item about the same price.
