In a double hook up situation all you can do is leave the one rod on the baitrunner and play the fish on the other rod first. I have found in the past that often the second fish after an initial run will lay quiet until you start to bring it in. However 3 seasons ago I had a different type of...

We chatted at the Barbel show Martin, the magazine has a good variety of articles about different species. I particularly liked the Chub articles by Vito in CC27 & 28 and the excellent Barbel one by Stephan in CC23. Regards Steve
