    A can of worms. Jon Berry

    Graham, this is the last chapter in the River Prince anthology by Chris Yates - Walking away from the Thames by John Ginifer. Possibly the best barbel story that I've read, it captures the essence of autumn barbel fishing brilliantly.

    Question for the braid users out there

    Does anyone use braid, not mono as a mainline when fishing the bigger rivers especially with extra water on? Interested to hear the pro's and con's ie less drag due reduced diameter and abrasion resistance for example. I'm looking to get out into the flow when fishing an angry Thames and any...
