Same knot that I used to show anglers when I used to crew for Steve Porter on 'True Blue' out of Poole ;)

Great ;) one of my nearest competitors☺ Joking aside, yet another budget retailer gone, used to buy a lot of clothing from there so will have to look elsewhere now😏

Couldn't agree more with all of the above post and the previous one highlighted 😏

Have a look at this Facebook group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/267219520447659/ I sold a set of alarms to someone on here and got a lot more than I paid for them and old Delkims are very sought after ;)

I have a lovely Harrison 4 piece travel Barbel rod which I can't decide wether to keep or sell 😏

Just double checked and although their website appears to be still up and running they have definitely pulled their ebay deals 😏

I have been using them for years with no problems but just had a look and can't find any listings from them so it doesn't look good😏

I have cheap and cheerful but nonetheless very efficient Fladen braid scissors and can't fault them (I get them super cheap as I own a tackle shop:rolleyes:) seriously though they are superb;)

I certainly hope so ;)

Last year I got the deal of the century in the shape of a Drennan IM8 13" Super Stick in VGC for a Fiver ;) I have used it once for Grayling and It's a lovely rod:p I have no Idea what it's actually worth?

I bought two Okuma Aventa Pro centrepins for just under £80 ea (now £120), and two Swallow pins a few years before at just over £50 ea! I still have the Okuma's but let the Swallows go for £100 each some time ago with no regrets as they were the Mk1 version with the leather pad drum brake ;)

What a Legend Terry is, also fishing some of my favourite haunts, If only those stretches were anything like they were back then😒 I bet there are still some monsters around though;)

I have been considering trying braid for trotting again since I acquired some 200m spools of 'Sundance Tackle Super Braid' (Roger Baysance's company) in 12lb BS 0.09mm which is a round dyneema braid that floats well. I currently have a few spools in my tackle shop intended for LRF anglers to use...

I'm Jealous;)

Great thread Jon, I was inspired to try float fishing for Barbel by the great Keith Speer who's articles on the subject were very informative too. This is a float caught 17lb beauty which was published in the angling press. Sadly Keith died a couple of years later, a sad loss:(

Yat? ASAP? Do tell Graham, is this a secret bait ;)

I see you have joined the group Alex, I think you will find it very interesting and informative 👍

That was brilliant😂😂😂
