Hi Paul I have two Harrison Chimera Avons, both 11 feet, very light but plenty of power, no trouble holding 13lb Barbel. Well worth a look. Brian.

Hi guys Try the new Korum triangular net, it comes in two sizes, 24 and 28 inch. Very useful for leaving a spare in the car. The price is around £ 16/17. Brian.

Hi Luke try ringing Steve Harrison on 0151 709 5981. Good luck Brian.

After using the Fox three rod quiver, I have bought another three as they are brilliant, quite a few of us at Throop are now using these. Three rods plus two generous side pockets that are on the opposite side, a very good strap that can be fitted on either side. And a good size space that...

Hi Robert I thought that it was run by Bill Newton after Barbara someone will tell us. Brian.

Hi Gary that takes me back a bit, I used to spend every Friday sleeping on the rat infested river bank waiting for the first light to start fishing, in those days it was run by Jim and Barbara Carey........I would bait up the swim and settle down to a good breakfast in Barbara's house. After...

Hi Gary, I think Fox take some beating, but have a look at Nash H-Gun, they are much cheaper. Make sure you get ones with a nice screw thread at the bottom for getting into some hard ground. Brian.

Hi Cliff You can also try wrapping some paste around your lead, or if you use a feeder some paste can be put inside it. This method will create a leakage into you swim. Brian

Hi Guys Try THE SOURCE groundbait just add water to make a paste. I suppose you could add this to the ready made paste. Brian.

Hi Ben, I also had a problem, a sticking bale arm, it came back exactly the same and it cost me over £20. I sent it back and they sent me my postage back. Although they were quick I was not impressed. The guy on the other end of the phone is a real bundle of laughs, someone should teach...

Hi Chris, I had this type of net for quite a few years, in fact I carry one of these in my van as a spare. It was ok, but you must make sure that the arms are pushed into the Y joint securely other than that they are no problem. Brian. PS.......never had a 20lb+ Barbel in it to test it...

Hi Ed, Try giving Nigel Gray a ring at Davis tackle in Christchurch, he may be able to help, Fred Whitlock is still a regular in his shop. Nigel is a BFW member.

Erratic on my I phone.

I am with you DAVE, my roving and rolling meat days are now over, the back just can't take the strain any more. Old age. Brian.

I met up with Fred on many many occasions, and he will be sadly missed. R.I.P. Another Legend.

Top service and very reliable. Brian
