    Your go to bait

    Dynamite the source- granted I rarely use the boilies now but still like the pellets in the mix and the stick mix for the teme. But the range used to be ace in the puddle chuckin' days and had success on the river on it. Hopefully see you on the weekend Patrick !

    Stolen tackle.

    Daniel, I think you may be taking things a tad too literally and it would appear to be a shame to leave the forum over such tongue in cheek comments. I think some of Patrick's and John's comments are not admissions of being thugs and i presume them to be humble barbel fisherman and not the...

    petzl head torches??

    I've got one of these - small, lightweight and a beam that is very powerful (i often turn it down as "full beam" is more than you need IMO). However, like Richard 99% of the time i use the red light but you cannot go wrong at this price: Energizer Extreme Headlight 631898

    Elips pellet - preferred stockists

    Funny that Richard, a certain angler known to both of us who goes by the name "Teabag" believes that a barbel can only be caught on meat.... If the elips pellet is soon to disappear maybe i should get ahead of the game and combine all these suggestions and come up with elips pellet shaped...

    Matt Hayes reckons rivers are had it - your views

    My friend was telling me about this article....i haven't read it myself but is it right that after he proclaims specimen river fishing to be dead that he then talks about some lakes he is opening? Sounds like a marketing manoeuvre if this is the case!!

    new brolly

    Steve, Have a look at these waterline brollies - I went for the cheapest one, very light to carry but a wouldn't fancy using in in strong wind- but for carrying in my rod quiver for roaming the Teme in the rain it's perfect. I purchased a heavier duty universal brolly pole that can be screwed...

    Well done the Angling Trust. Another reason to join....

    I agree with what Richard is getting at here. I had no problem with the Angling Trust and had read up on it's membership however, as Richard says you only have to look on the facebook pages, local/national media pages to see that Joe Public has seen the original press release from the Angling...

    Codbelling

    Whilst i am not a poster on that site, i know a bunch of the guys who post on there through one of my clubs i'm in. They are all top guys and if you actually knew them away from their site, which is just a bit of fun, they are a great advert for angling as they can't do enough to help others...

    Taking pictures when fishing alone..

    This is first season I've started taking self takes too. Another vote for gardener bank stick adaptor. I've found it fairly trouble free so far. Saying that I don't catch much worth photographing! In fact since i purchased my camera i seem to be using it mostly to photograph mates' fish! Also...

    Rolling Meat

    There goes the neighborhood! Bruce i've not tried on Lower as tough but Dave and I will take you on the Teme for you to have a go, nothing more exciting than when you can see your bait being munched by a barbel that shoots out from a snag. On braid its even more exciting as you feel everything.

    Best tactics for when the sun is high in the sky....

    I think it depend's on what river you are on Chris. Take last weekend for instance. Friday daytime, the Lower Severn was on fire, in the blaring sun and not just for me but for others present. We fished the Wye all weekend and really struggled in the same conditions. I'd say its down to the...

    Neil saved me

    Bleeding hell Jim, your hardly going to ask him to delve into his documents to produce all these things at 11:30pm at night. I'm sure Neil wouldn't have lent him the car if he knew that Andy wasn't going to be insured! I am insured on my policy to drive anybody's car as long as they are...
