Make the complaint formal and keep going until you get an answer. People like this do the EA a lot of damage. If you get nowhere threaten to contact your MP - that usually makes the EA pay attention!
Elliptical pellets were produced because they use less energy when drying them compared to cylindrical pellets. Sounds great but they have one major drawback which is they flutter when sinking through the water and fish find them harder to catch and as a result more go to waste through the...
Might be! Never hidden it. User name came up as David as that’s the name on my credit card. If I knew how to change it to Dai I would!
Regardless of being backed by Korum I like the Combi feeders. Not used the river ones yet but think the idea is reasonable.
I love the combi-feeders. I’ve used them extensively for tench fining for two seasons and only once have I lost the caps. May be different in flowing rivers but I doubt it as Ade Kiddell designed them for barbel and he tells me he has no problem with them on the Lower Trent.

Clive Smith died of bladder cancer which is not linked to smoking. As for chrysodine, I was told by a chemist many years ago its chemical structure is typical of many carcinogenic chemicals.
A man selling a barbel print puts it on a barbel forum thereby bringing it to the attention of members who presumably like barbel and might be interested in the print and might not have been aware of the print’s availability otherwise. The result is people questioning his motives, quality of...
