Richard, generally at this time of year head upstream to the higher peg numbers. At the beginning of this week the barbel may have been spawning according to a couple of Scunthorpe members I spoke to on the opposite bank.

There are also two stretches at Fiskerton on the Trent, tickets can be bought at the village post office.

No problem Stephen. They’re just sitting here 😁 should they be of any use to anyone else.

I have a number of old chair legs lying around. The mice got at a pair of chairs and the legs were all that were salvageable. They are all 3/4” or 18mm dia. If they’re of any use you can have a set for the price of postage.

On licences, I renewed mine yesterday and received an email with the numbers on within minutes of paying.

I’ve had the Korum one for over 2 years now and never had a problem with it. The plastic locking mechanisms are quite robust.

What’s wrong with sticking the bank stick in at an angle?

Sorry, but from where are you hearing about a total lead?

Down a bit more? We’ve just had nearly 24 hours of continuous rain :( It’s only going in one direction over the weekend.

David, I use an iPad and am browsing advert free using Safari and Ad Blocker Pro.

I store my rigs on a Korum rig board so they are “bent” two or three times. Although they are misshapen when I remove them from the board I find that they are perfectly straight after the first cast and being exposed to the current for a few minutes.

The last swim at Llanthomas on the R Wye

The Trent at Fiskerton yesterday

Or you can use one of these Kev

The adverts didn’t really bother me but the discussion made me think about it so I downloaded the Ad-blocker pro app for my iPad & iPhone and I am now ad free. I also use the PC version on my desktop.

What are you actually concerned about Lee? I owned one for a short while but sold it because it was so heavy. That said it was rock solid and I’ve never heard others complain about it, quite the contrary.

Barely 2% of license holders got off their lazy arse and bothered to vote. So yes, technically, that is democracy in action.

I’ve had mine for over a year now and it’s still super springy. It’s really useful on the sloping banks of the Trent but could probably benefit from a couple of pegging loops as it will slide downhill with a lively fish in it. That said you can put a peg through the spring loops.

Have a look on the Bob Roberts Trent guide.

Look on eBay for an old Canon G5. IR remote and flippable screen. It’s not the latest technology but it’s a great old workhorse of a camera.
