Hi Rob, Interested in the Shimano Triple X rod for float fishing but one question for you if I may: Has it got stand-off guides? I find more modern rods too small in the ring diameters and close to the blank which in my case cause too much static electricity in the line. Thanks.

I use Dickies Storm II Black Safety Work Boots Steel Toe Cap Hiker FA23385S https://hirstfootwear.co.uk/products/mens-dickies-storm-ii-black-safety-work-boots-steel-toe-cap-hiker-fa23385s In addition I'd recommend Sealskinz waterproof socks https://www.sealskinz.com/collections/socks

I'm not far from Bedford as I'm Hertfordshire based if I can be of any help. My daughter lives in Sandy which isn't that far from Bedford.

A pity you're so far away from me, my Metanium would've gone well with that. Thanks for the reply.

Hi Daniel (Dan00t), is the GVR rod the one I noticed on the LAS site with the black and wood effect reel seat?

Yes please Rob. PM about to be sent.

Hi Rob, pm'd

Hello Rob, PM sent re. Nash Indulgence Ultralite Chair and Drennan Super Specialist 3m twist-loc handle. Thanks.

Reels on offer at Johnson Ross Tackle for £59.99 and in stock. I've bought a couple recently and I was impressed with the lack of backlash in them.

When I've been fishing on a reservoir on my own in a boat I've used an Eddie Turner Ultimate Weigh Bag thus: https://www.eddieturner.co.uk/pike-tackle/Sladle/Weigh-Retainer-249.html Designed for Pike but I'd imagine it would be great for Barbel at 1200mm long and 600mm deep.

Hi Mike, yes please. Send me your details and I'll do likewise, thanks.

A pity I'm a month too late. Wouldn't have minded throwing a few lures there.

Hello all, I've just found one of the above rods for sale which has piqued my interest. Although I've been a member of King's Weir for a number of years my main discipline has been lure fishing. Since I've reached my retirement in May, my intention is to master angling for Barbel on the River...

Thanks, just received a Guru Fusion folding mat to try.

I, like you have the same problem re. King's Weir. Which mat have you decided on?

Okay, I'll pass this time.

Hi Chris, Does the tripod come with the case please? Thanks. Victor.

Hi Neil, thanks for the response. Are you going to the Barbel Show on Sunday 8th June at Notts County football club? Could meet you there; otherwise I'll pay the postage. Dm me as you see fit re. payment details, thank you. Victor.

Hello Neil, just joined today after lurking for a while. Your net that you are offering for sale sounded perfect for me, being a member of King's Wear; that was until I discovered today that the rules now state a requirement for 42" ones as a minimum 😉. Think I'd still be interested though...
