Howard, 1 fish carrying size 8 hook and small amount of line. Everything held on the attempted cast, I just looked like a clown. Jon

Whilst chatting to a bailiff on a new club water I recently joined today, I attempted a 40 Yd cast with a 5oz feeder.... With the bail arm still over. He didn't say so, but I reckon he's labled me in the noddy category. Thought I was going to make ammends by showing another of the clubs...

Thanks for the replys, will get a pair of the precision Angling ones. And thanks Chris got your PM, Will probably take up your offer in the near future too. Jon

Any recomendations? I have some Maui Jims that were brilliant glasses, but after 3 seasons they are too scratched to see through, so don't really want to pay that much again. Have given myself £40 budget Cheers Jon

The Wharfe, and the unseen monster that smashed my 6lb line and nerves to bits.

James, plenty of bleak on the Lower Swale. Jon

Try between Cromwell and Flixborough. ;)

If not I'll have it. :)

Looks alot like a cheap fladen I had and used for years abit plasticy and a poor anti reverse, but the clutch- front and baitrunner were superb, it didn't have any neon lights though!

You must be using the wrong baits Mike you want to float fish a live freshly caught Burbot anywhere between the sign and Linton Lock.

Well said Ian. Hope this Otter is found to have died of natural causes.

Used a few FCs for hooklenghts, always go back to froghair. I've had 15lb sensor go before this in 13.2. Jon

The Barbel Catchers Club book(the second one), concerning different English barbel rivers is very readable, think it might a available from this site? Yates' how to fish concerns perch, not his best (the deepening pool and casting at the sun) but is very readable, not as a how too, but for...

You must remeber that alot of posters on here are from south of Sheffield Mike. Those from North of this will be ok with an extra pair of socks and a jumper during the 'colder' months.
