    Front Drag reels for barbel fishing with no baitrunner......

    Fishing the Thames last night with 6oz leads and with weed on the line when reeling in, it occurred to me that my 3500 Daiwa Baitrunners may not be quite the right tools for the job! Looking online today I can see that Okuma do some reasonable Big Pit type Carp Reels with a front drag but no...

    8mm thread to 3/8 bsf adapter for landing net

    Revisiting this thread as I'm in the same position, looking for an adaptor. There are 8mm to 10mm adaptors online, would this fit a standard net, which is around 9.5mm? I can't find anything online that works and don't have the skills to do myself. Thanks in advance!

    Good Luck

    I am out tonight. More in hope than anticipation & mainly down to the dismal return thus far. In short, I'm desperate to catch one last barbel. It's mild tonight & prefer to be out than in watching s**t TV!

    Wanted Shimano x-aero 4000fa

    As above, I had the 2500 FA version. The design flaw meant I ended up selling them, for the price I expected a lot better!

    PVA mesh

    I have looked at lots of options & now cable tie a ronnie rig swivel (as above) to the bottom of the lead so it all hangs below. Doesn't tangle & doesn't pull the swivel out of the semi fixed lead set up that I use. You can tie any size of PVA bag.

    Barbel fishing in Surrey

    No problem at all Neil. The woking ticket definitely allows fishing into the evening, the well known spot is Pigeon House - I think Byfleet have the opposite bank? Woking has some lovely lakes on the ticket also but was a bit regimented and busy for me on these so I decided against it
