I think this is my last session for this season....

I noticed two gentlemen walking down the road as I was chatting to a gamekeeper in the field just up from our parked cars. Then, when I got back up to Chris, we commented on the gent's being down in the river near the sheds. Could that have been you and your friend? We are hoping the weather...

Hi Declan, thanks for that. We were there last Wednesday. We only really got fishing around midday. I think you need several days there to get to know the place. My friend Antony was the chap fishing the tip; he had a nice grayling, he guessed to be a high 2lber. I think Ant had three grayling...

Possibly my last attempt at a barbel on the float gear this season....

I think you made a wise choice, Russ.

We had a trip out chasing the ladies this week but they turned out to be a little fridgid 🤭 haha .... Were hoping to have another try for them soon, fingers crossed thay arnt as shy if we do.

I know I'm probably in a minority, but I actually like graphics, line ratings, etc., on a fishing rod. If I remember rightly, Drennan used to make another spliced-tip rod called the super stick. The blank looked very similar to the IM8 rods. Drennan had another rod out at the same time, I think...

Both of them 👍 I deffo dont think the Hydra is OTT.

I quite like those graphics Richard 😂🤣🤣

I hadn't thought to mention the 15ft float rod I've been using recently. I don't know if it's possible to get one now, but when I got mine, which was this time last year, they had been discontinued for a while. I contacted Matchman Angling, who still had the advertised range of rods. When I...

Very nice :cool:

I get you now, Kev 👍.

I'm not sure what you mean, Kev? I haven't got the speci 15-footer myself....yet. I got the 13ft mode as soon as they were released, and then a week after, I got the 14ft model because I liked them so much. They had an action and the power I had been looking for for ages, and I was very happy...

For what it's worth, I would be purchasing the 15ft speci Acolyte rod.

Thanks, Bob :-).

You said it, Jim, "just your opinion".

Not in the video (unfortunately) but I fell heaad fisrt into the river as I exited to go home lol. Payback for me laughing at a friend when he fell in while we fished together back end of last summer. Go on Josh, have a laugh at me know 🤣😂👍. At least you fell in shallower water when it was...

I'd suggest you contact Garry Mills at Mill Tackle and ask him about your reel. He will have made the reel.

Just back from my local tackle shop, no shortage of sensor. He says those rumours of fire, etc, are just rumours. Apparently, they have a new distributor, so don't panic for now, sensor lovers :-).

Chris, I have used a friend's setup, and he had the Dave Harrell line on his reel. If I'm honest, it didn't feel like anything special to me, especially given the price! My friend didn't have it on his reel long before he replaced it with another line. For years, several friends and I were...
