    Split shot advice

    I like the ZLT shot which are zinc. I have never had a problem with line damage and easy to reuse. Bigger ones can easily be placed over a thin piece of silicon tube if you want to. I use no6 to SSG. https://yateleyangling.co.uk/products/zlt-split-shot-refill-tubs

    polarized over glasses for spectacle wearers ?

    I’ve had a few pairs from this company who sell fit overs. The latest I have are polarised and photochromic. For £25 I can’t fault them: http://wrapzeyewear.com/

    Does anyone no best place for older shimano reel parts .

    Filindre as per link above can almost certainly help or just go into a local fastener company for a suitable E type circlip. It should not be an issue.

    National Mullet Club Mullet Masterclass at Northney Marina, Hayling Island, July 24-25th 2021

    Hi everyone. We (NMC) have run a few masterclasses for those wishing to try fishing for grey mullet. This year we have expanded on the theme. I thought I would post it up here as if like me you enjoy catching a fish that offers a challenge you will almost certainly enjoy catching mullet. If you...

    Floats

    Two good questions! I will not have 1000's of each size and have no intention of trying to start a big business so I'll sell them via pm on here, via friends and Facebook etc. I'll bump the post now and then. As for the when, I have placed the order and was told this afternoon it could be early...

    Floats

    Thanks Simon, I must admit to never using the eye and was maybe going to omit it completely much preferring a piece of tube on the tip. As the float is not made of balsa I don't see it getting ripped out as so much of an issue as I remember it to be when carp fishing.

    Floats

    You are on the list! Hopefully this year our plans to have a fish together will not be scuppered as often :( I know what you mean about the eyes...... :) Being able to blacken a tip and then just change it back to a coloured will help me especially on the Severn.

    Floats

    I have spent ages over the years looking for the right floats for certain applications for what I want with size; a lot only go up to 6gr; shape; many are to round, subsequently the water makes them wobble as it pushes past when you hold back rather than goes round the body and stem material; I...

    Something a little different. Seaside.

    I'm chuffed for you, it was a great result taking the river conditions into consideration and how it has been fishing. Target now 5lb! :) I think you stand a great chance as conditions are set to improve :rolleyes:

    Habitat destruction

    Couple of replies ref Sizewell, let’s hope the opposition isn't snuffed out by government as they are doing with HS2. I had a meeting with Suffolk Wildlife Trust a couple of weeks back on another matter, this is what I was told this afternoon about Sizewell. Hi Andy, It’s not good and we are...

    EA have been busy,

    Just bumped it up as it had returned to the list. I need to get this added in ASAP as I'm putting it all together now as I'm looking at it with Stuart Singleton White the AT Campaign Manager. It looks horrendous vandalism.

    Wels Catfish - The Debate Thread

    I have heard that someone who lived not far from me and is now deceased took up fishing for them and put numbers of juveniles he got from a nearby lake in which they breed, into the W Avon, Severn, Thames and Trent. How true I do not know but all rivers where they are reported. Looking at the...

    Angling Times otter article

    I find the attitude of some writing on this thread quite unobjective. Determining what they say as fact and rubbishing anyone that dares question their opinion, mostly though because they will not state what they want done or will do to rectify the problem as they see it of otters. I have...

    3m landing net handle

    I must admit I don't look after mine as I should with a wipe of a cloth if it starts slipping as good as it gets, it still performs admirably. I now have 2 as I thought I had lost 1 and subsequently bought another which is now on loan to a mate who had his gear nicked. When my old one did start...
