    Mono question

    I've had no problems with it. Apart from pulling to break. Too much effort easier to cut with scissors. Can't complain about the price.

    Talk about peaking too early.

    Wow, the first fish was amazing and now the second is remarkable. I'd stay with that rod. Well done Josh.

    NEW ! The grand fishing adventure

    Yes Joe he is good at catching Carp. Let's hope he sticks with that. As for him turning his attention to Barbel. He should do well, with the amount of free bait thrown at him. Fishing water, most of us can only dream of. You are right though, he isn't where he is for nothing. Would be...

    NEW ! The grand fishing adventure

    Yeah, but Carp tactics for everything. Someone mentioned earlier about the Crucians. I saw Paul Whitehouse using a slider rig for Bream in Ireland. Float fishing for Carp as well as floating crust. Ali would've been using bait boats, canoes and definitely alarms not forgetting the camo's...

    NEW ! The grand fishing adventure

    Same old, same old. Carp, carp and more carp. Do you think Ali knows how to fish without an alarm. Even the chef is in camo's.

    Strange things on the river bank.

    I went to Clifton Hampden today. All swims occupied. As I looked along the six or so swims. There was a bivvy with a TV ariel on top. I had to look twice, I wish I'd taken a photo. Didn't have the heart to tell them The Gunners were on BT 😂. COYG!

    Angling crossroads.

    Do you fish with "buddy"? To help if needed. Maybe do more mixed fishing. As in venues, not just rivers.

    Grab and go food options

    I carry a couple of tins of mackerel or sardines too. Usually end up with tomato sauce down my front. Whenever I fish at Bridgenorth, I'm into Aldi raiding the nearly out of date shelf.

    New footwear for winter recommendations

    Do any of these recommendations actually keep your feet warm if you're static. No matter what I've tried, always have to go for a walk to warm my feet. Especially toes. Dreading the thought of winter now! Might need something for inside the house this winter. Brrrrrr

    Thames head dries

    Deregulation. Competion is good. Is how I remember the pitch. Gas, electric, water, railways. It just created cartels. Renationalise the lot.
