Hi Garry,
I lost the nut same as you to the back of my reel !!!!Stuart and the team are away fishing in BC and are due back in a couple of days although Bill(contact page on their web) sent me one from Canada.Proper global world we live sending a British made product from the otherside of the...
Had 2 in the last 10 days on the Kennet that barely weighed 1LB(estimated),both caught on 14mm boilie,good to see whne we are all speculating around problems of recruitment.Im sure that normally as posted previously they inhabit different areas and dont take standard baits.
another vote for shortcrust pastry,danish blue and chedder....also add richworth blue cheese flavouring 3mls and some garlic powder.It can make the mix a little wet some if you add some cheap grated parmesan works a treat.
Best way to present this is using enterprise paste mates(the ones that...

Boilies,pellets,meat,hemp,maggots,casters......them eat the lot,much more important is location,application,presention and wether they are on the munch or not!!!!
Keith,
after seeing you on Tight Lines I now regard you as an expert on float fishing so I hope you dont mind a bit of advice from a total novice,if you cant see the float anymore......Strike!!!!!
The Korum arms on the rubberised net work loose at the spreader block and keep popping out espi.cally in faster flow must be some twisting motion,as for handles i broke my Drennan Twistlock to other night in a really pacy swim at the screw when the carbon went,since bought the middy30plus ard...
For me it depends on which rivers Im fishing and is probably more of a confidence thing.On the kennet Im happier with a long hooklength ot around 3ft and keeping everything pinned down to avoid line in the feeding area.I have heard some interesting theories on such rivers as the Trent and...
Tell the insurance company they were a couple of Torrix and then give Bob Gill a call.....that way out off ever cloud comes a silver lining.
