    Carp Rods

    Hi all, Never fished for them before but I m going to have a go for them over the next few seasons when conditions dictate. The waters I will be fishing don't require huge casts 30-40 yards being the furthest, with much of the fishing done closer than this. Carp being high duobles to mid...

    Crucian baits.

    Chris, I've got a similar problem on a sand pit that I fish. Although it doesn't have any Roach or Rudd in it (long story) it does hold a lot of small crucians, with a sparse stocking of some big old things up to and over 3lb, which Ive seen once in the deep, clear margins. It has LOTS of...

    Help clearing something up

    I just read something that in a carp mag (im not a carp fisherman), and I wondered if someone could clear up what the thing I read actually means. When referring to casting out a decent distance, the anglers said he "likes to cast with the biggest drop possible, 8ft if I can get away with it"...

    Grayling

    Thanks a lot fellas. Steve it was from the upper River Dane. Some HUGE dace in here as well that have yet eluded me. Can't beat river fishing. Im definitely taking a some lightish swim feeder gear next time. Nice to get a feel for a river roving with the trotting gear though. Anyway, time...

    Grayling

    Had 20 odd grayling today. Not big, all around a pound. Much better fish to be had but happy to catch. Had 8 chub to 4lb as well. Perfect on the 'pin and light line. Can't beat it.

    Grayling

    Hello Fellas, Just Hijacking the thread temporarily to ask, whats the lightest b/s hooklength you would go down to for grayling? Presuming the water is reasonably pacey and they are pound fish with the chance of a two? My first season after them so I dont want to go undergunned...

    Abu 505 - good condition

    Good idea Duncan! Here it is, front and back, and you are quite right; still works perfectly playing the fish off the handle. Thanks for looking!
