    Why no "Ghillie Service" for course fishing?

    Give Davis Tackle a ring in Christchurch 01202 485169 Chris Holley used to do guiding sessions on the Hampshire Avon/Stour and is contactable through them. If he is no longer doing it I'm sure they will be able to put you onto someone.

    Birthday Barbel...

    Well done Neil and hope that the rest of your birthday continues in the same vein 👍

    Treating yourself.

    But it's the understated look that I find appealing. Probably aimed primarily at cane users and an Okuma Raw on cane would just look wrong. I have always preferred a less ventilated pin ( although I own them ) to help keep out the maggot dust, groundbait, etc and on the few reviews I have seen...

    Rivers in and around Salisbury

    Apart from being on their membership Britford used to be on a day ticket as well. Nice fishery with a bit of everything with most coarse fish plus Trout and Grayling.

    Super strong beaked point hook

    If you can get away with a size 8 ( the smallest they do ) you could try the Drennan Continental Boillie Hooks. They are brutes !

    DAIWA Sensor line problems

    Hi Brian, I have had the same problems but only on spools purchased over the last 5 years ( never before ). I mailed them about 4 months ago with pics of the last failure so they can't claim ignorance. They asked for the breaking strain of the spools it occurred on ( there were...

    Centre pin recommendations

    I never play a fish off the ratchet as I just think it disturbs the peace and quiet of anyone else fishing nearby and I think after while it would get on my own nerves as well. It's up there for me with setting your hangers with the alarm still on. But a ratchet as a bite alarm..............Well...
