    Avon Scales

    Not a link to any scales, but just a little story to say how good a company the makers were. Had my first set of Avons for about 25 years, still weighed perfect but the glass was almost impossible to see through and they were looking very shabby, managed to get in touch with the Avon scale...

    Being lost!

    Nice going Clive... its always good to try something we don't usually do, gives us that feeling of excitement from years past. Proves we shouldnt just take it all for granted.

    Maui Jim Sunglasses

    I know they may be a little more expensive than your average 'cheapie' .But i believe you get what you pay for, and if you have pretty sensitive eyes (as i do) then i think spending a little extra is justified. Just need to know which model to go for. I think the lens choice is between the grey...

    NEW John Baker website

    Used them many times in the past, and will certainly be using them at some stage in the future, not sure they are over priced , as if you are using decent ingredients , which JB obviously is, then these come at a price. I'm currently using a bait that works out somewhere in the region of £12-13...

    Best Barbel Reel

    used a couple of 55's for many many years, then moved on to shimanos . But always thought i would like to go back to a '55'. found a perfect one.... it was rubbish compared to todays reels, our memories can play some funny tricks on us, i now use 3500b's and cant see me changing them any time...

    Hampton Loade meeting

    Echo all the above, the fishing was always going to take a back seat to the social side , the evening(night) in the pub was a huge plus.... thought the landlord was gonna ask us to leave for clogging up his bar till he realised how many drinks we were buying..... by the end of the night he was...

    cold feet ? not any more!

    Paul, some of us dont have the luxury of carrying a few 0z's of 'warmth' in reserve:p:D

    cold feet ? not any more!

    Ive tried all kinds of boots over the years,rite back to the Boom80's but if you suffer with cold feet (as i do) then its a real problem. At the moment i have some baffins i got sent over from America, they are decent boots, but when im sat still for hours on a freezing night my feet still get...
