    Hook snapped

    I've been using the Korum Xpert power hooks in a size 8 with some success however I had one break yesterday when pulling into a decent barbel.It snapped on the bend almost immediately after hooking the fish and I didn't put too much pressure on so I assume it must have been a bad hook.

    Good News from the EA

    Looks like the water quality of our rivers is improving. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-14710478 Or is it a cynical PR exercise by the EA to justify their existence :rolleyes:
