    Gorleston Tackle, Great Yarmouth

    Hi Terry - unfortunately its a business and I am sure rod builders make more from complete builds than repairs/refurbs, shame.

    Landing net handle

    Just want to through the Wychwood specialist into the mix - never had any problems with mine. Also Lone Angler announced today that they are sadly closing, special offers on most things I think - I will miss their bait.

    fixed leads

    Thanks for all the great comments, all taken on board, and sorry I was talking about semi fixed, that said, the first reply was my worry with the leader being near the main line, I think I'll stick to running leads!

    fixed leads

    Hi - just a thought, do fixed leads work when fishing upstream, I would normally fish a running lead upstream and if the conditions are right a fixed lead downstream. With a short leader I cant see them working. Any thoughts. Garry

    Hi to all

    Thanks Chris - I have tried a few fisheries on the Wensum, a lot seem to be tied up by syndicates, interesting stretch behind Wensum Valley Golf Club, looks seriously under fished, a lot of big chub floating about no sign of barbel though - mind you was very low when I visited. Also heard talk...
