    built to last gear

    Amount of use within these time frames should be considered. I am with Dave on this though a pair of bombproof boots wouldnt go amiss. Cheers Brian

    I never met the man but I can say he seriously he impressed me as a man and an angler in his attitude and his angling skill. I hope he plunders that big river in the sky. Shocked RIP Keith

    snagged again ?

    I find the lightest possible feeder/lead you can get away with as when you lift the rod it comes off the bottom more vertically than with a heavier one. ps I have lost my fair share of feeders to go with this on the Wye. Cheers

    Suggestion for hooklength

    Welcome back Ray! Everyting I have tried on the Wye means one thing changing the hooklength a lot. The rocks and boulders make it hard going on anything you care to use. Cheers Brian

    Fluorocarbon Hooklinks?

    As mentioned the right knot tied properly makes a huge difference with some Fluoros breaking too easily. Ta Brian

    Breathable Waders

    I am just canvassing opinions on breathable waders. My neoprene ones have cracked and are letting in water. I have heard that the way to go is breathable ones. With other pieces of equipment the choice is varied in price and quality. Suggestions please. Cheers Brian

    The perfect canine companion - which dog?

    I tried to take my German Short Haired Pointers fishing didn't go exactly to plan. I ended up tangled up in dog leads and stuff flying everywhere. I may need to tire them out first lol Brian

    when to fish

    I believe Barbel are crepuscular so feed dawn and dusk mainly, as ever when food is dished up to you on a plate would you turn it down in the daytime. Brian
