I use these - cheap enough and very useful: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/264736039391?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649

That wasn't a deliberate stocking though - members of the family that owned the estate at that time rescued ghost carp from a small pool next to the manager's cottage when it started to lose water, leaving the fish in distress. Rather than see them die, they put them into Redmire, not realising...

Richard - No, I haven't had any problems of that sort. All down to my expert packing, I expect? ;)

I have one of the older Korum Ruckbags and never lay it flat - I find I can pack it better and still easily reach anything I need when it's in an upright position.

I repaired my Korum All Rounder 12' 1.5lb rod that snapped a couple of inches from the tip by Gorilla-Glueing an old baiting needle shaft into both ends of the broken part. The repair has lasted over a year without any issues and doesn't seem to have affected the action of the rod.

I know a lot of people rate this stuff, but it doesn't repel insects so much as drown them in a sloppy barrier film. I find Smidge a lot more pleasant to use, as it quickly dries on the skin after application and keeps away every flying pest (except swans and coots), even the dreaded West...

Sorry to distract from the point of the thread, but that isn't what happened at Redmire. The fishery manager was away from home when the water level in the ornamental (non-fishing) pond next to his cottage became dangerously low. Members of the family that owned the estate at the time thought...

Thanks! :)

Do you have a link? The eBay search function doesn't return anything for "techno baits".

Yes - Marco made Sylcast line. Nasty twisty stuff as I remember...

I only know of one Andrew Davis rod that's been sold on, and that was to a close friend of the original buyer - most people who own one love it so much, it would have to be prised from their cold, dead hands...:D

The Chinese already own half of London - probably only a matter of time before they've bought up all the decent fisheries as well...:(

The listings mentioned are not the property of the Chinese sellers - they're cut and pasted from genuine items that have already been sold on eBay by legitimate UK sellers. The Retro Tackle Facebook group members are pretty good at spotting these (especially when some of them are the...

I've used these for years and find them very good (and they're very thin): http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/332013678312?lpid=122&chn=ps&var=541050366315&adgroupid=39159866351&rlsatarget=pla-268911516418&adtype=pla&poi=&googleloc=1006886&device=c&campaignid=698622927&crdt=0

Yellow, grey or pied? ;)

I've used Dinsmore Powerdrive banksticks for years and can't fault them: Dinsmore Powerdrive Banksticks Available IN 5 Sizes Power Drive Extra Stong | eBay

A nice one here, if you're not already sorted: Vintage Fishing Company | Grice and Young Jecta MkIII

That particular eBay seller is notorious amongst vintage tackle geeks for his generally outrageously high prices!

The Drennan inline feeders are of the "semi-fixed" type, so the use of a lower b.s. hooklength should avoid any possibility of a fish being left towing a feeder in the event of a break. Drennan Bolt Rig Feeder | HarrisSportsmail.com
