    Tackle addiction

    If I publicly admit to being excited by a rucksack it's all over. Got it for £115 and it'll hopefully last 4 seasons, so fingers crossed it'll be money well spent and earn its keep. I am firmly in the school of 'right tools for the job' and 'you get what you pay for'. I did buy last...

    Tackle addiction

    Very nice rucksacks (love the 'tactical pants'!) but sadly too small for me. I need sleeping bag, dslr, 2 days of food, water, 3 layers of winter clothing and tackle to fit. Had a look at army issue bergens but this is what I went for in the end as a bit cheaper...

    Tackle addiction

    I have a couple of copies of the Johnson Ross and Tacklebox catalogues floating about the house. Having just spent 400 quid on new reels, a new rucksack and 'bits and bobs' in the past few weeks I think it's fair to say I spend more money on fishing tackle than anything else these days bar the...

    Tidal Trent Reel

    Would recommend the xtbs, ss2600s, tournaments, and shimano 6000d or 8000d's. Can't go wrong with any of that lot.

    I have a lock up full. As an example do I need 3 bedchairs?

    Best net for barbel

    Agree it's not built to last multiple seasons no. I buy a new one about every 18 months, which is fine by me as it's cheap. Changing mesh is absolutely bonkers! Why on earth? Ian Crooks net is great. If Mr Tucker could build the Abu Garcia one I have it'd be perfect for me however.

    Best net for barbel

    No. What you want is one of these, in the large size: http://www.tacklebargains.co.uk/acatalog/Abu_Garcia_Olive_Green_Speciment_Net.html Just the right balance of depth of net and manoeuvrability in fast flows, and it's cheap. Will take barbel up to 19-20lbs happily. And so would I.

    At last a big Perch!

    That's fantastic Ian, very well done indeed! I've never had a good perch so can imagine how satisfying that is after working hard to get one. Brilliant!

    Trakker 6 rod holdall

    For sale is a rod holdall I really bought to protect rods whilst in storage. It's perfect - aside from some mud from my garage floor which will brush off if I could be bothered! Great quality bit of kit if you're off to France with rods you need to sling in a van as it can take 6 rods fully...

    Bedchair - JRC Stealth - Very light

    hi there I'm having a bit of a clear out and I've been hanging on to this for ages as it's comfortable and very light. I used to carry it for about a mile when fishing a certain venue and it's great because of the weight and it folds up so compactly ease of carrying. But its got to go because...
