    Advice on new rods please?

    I have always been totally happy with my 12ft 2lb Torrix. On Trent, Thames, Wye Lower Severn Kennet.etc. If my fishing was mainly on Tidal Trent , I would maybe go up in tc otherwise I would continue to drop it into the inside line during floods.

    Freespirit Tamer Power Float 15'

    Cliff. I had a pal in Yorkshire decide to hand a 1.75 Torrix up to me on a higher bank the same way. It snapped as well. The other main way to break a rod, without collision damage eg, stepping on it, hitting something with it, that I've seen is. Tying on an end rig by the handle under...

    A few chub from the Wye. Very slow start.

    Chasing chub....

    Yes. Years ago on the Thames. Fishing half way across in 12ft of water. A barbel of around 8lb with another followed all the way in. Nearly into the net. Only seen it once. Probably happens more than we realise.

    Thanks Paul. Sounds good. I've actually not had any problem using 2lb Torrix on the Wye or LS but generally will be fishing near side. And as you say wouldn't go far side with more than a 2 1/2oz filled feeder. I'm having the rods from Kevin, and yes, some method feeder work, 3oz leads with...

    SOLD Harrison Chimera 3 12' 2.25

    Hi Rich. As I'm going to have to do a fair bit more lake fishing I'm looking at rods that will be ok for decent tench, but will handle 20lb plus carp if needed. Also may use for lower Severn Zander fishing, popping out 3 oz leads with small roach or bleak. I've got the powemesh 2.25 s that...

    Darent Valley 13ft 2 piece specialist float rod.

    I saw the Darenth headline and assumed it was that rod refered to. Apologies. I hope you find one that matches your needs.

    Darent Valley 13ft 2 piece specialist float rod.

    Korum all rounder 3k 12ft 1.5tc. Enough power, cheap, 2 piece. What I use for most of my chub feeder or perch float fishing. Just a foot short.....

    Should have gone to Specsavers Derek. If I had 5% of his photographic skill I'd be a happy Bunny🤣

    A coloured Muddy Wye today in Ross.

    Chasing chub....

    The Wye was far more coloured than expected so I wondered if it would be hard with only bread for bait, however 11 Chub today but all small apart from a chunky 5lb 3oz that startled the perched Redbreast! Sad to see the sewage going into the water at Ross again.
