Not sure if this has been shared on here but just found the finished piece from the Bournemouth University Study on the Gt Ouse, not to be confused with the Karen Twine work from several years ago. This one is more focused on the gravels and spawning that was funded by the EA and Barbel Society...
Decided to sell my last Free Spirit, I want to get a matching pair of cheaper rods that I don't mind knocking about! It's a superb rod in great condition, I'm just not worthy! £140 collection from Huntingdon but will meet in reasonable distance.
As titled in great condition, one of a pair that I'm selling as I tend to just use one rod nowadays £140
Grice and Young Avon Royal Supreme in fair condition, bombproof reel, needs a good clean and oil to get it spinning free again but runs true enough £30
Collect Huntingdon...
Well used but well loved rod. Superb action, one of the best in its day. Selling as I've acquired too many rods and I'd like it to go to a home where it will be used, rather than gather dust. The cork handle is solid but grubby, the reel seat and rest of the rod is fine. Collection in Brampton...
Hi chaps,
With the closed season around the corner, I'm looking for something to keep me out of mischief. I'm thinking about refurbing my old John Wilson avon/quiver rod for next winter's chubbing trips. I'd like to fit a screw reel seat to it instead of those dodgy old sliding rings. Is it...
As titled, three piece in great condition, only used about three times. Lots of power ideal for barbel, chub, tench and carp. Collection from Huntingdon or Lakenheath areas. £55
While rooting around the shed, I found a brand new bulk spool of Gr80 in my favourite breaking strain. It's still in the little tub so hasn't been exposed to sunlight or anything. Still feels and looks perfect. Haven't tested it on my scales as I don't want to knacker my scales with the sharp...
2 piece 12' 1.5tc Prodigy rod. Great condition, tamed many a beast but now surplus to requirements. Collection near Huntingdon or Lakenheath areas. Will also be in Worcester area on January 16th if any help. £50
Hi all,
Massively taking a punt at this one but cast your minds back a good 10+ years and there was a bait firm start up by two chaps called Baits Online. They sponsored a few fish-ins and such like. I think the venture was fairly short lived though.
I'm trying to track down the guys that...
Couldn't decide whether to post this on the Ouse thread or on here. I'm guessing on here I'd get a varied response as the Upper Ouse is similar to places such as the Kennet, Loddon, W.Avon etc.
I find myself at bit of a crossroads here and wondered if I could hear some different viewpoints...
Selling my day shelter as I've only used it a handful of times and it's a bit too much to get on my motorbike now!
It's the mk1 version, super quick erection (ha!), superb condition and has its own carry bag. Ideal for the Trent/big river chaps.
35GBP (US government computer doesn't have...
Ok then chaps and chappesses, need some advice here, I'll start with a brief background......
My usual fishing routine used to consist of leaving work on a Friday afternoon, heading down to the river, fishing until around 11pm then retiring to the campervan for a quick mouthful of food and...
Just been skimming through the Facebook page of a club I was a member of last season, only a small club with a couple of miles of river but some fantastic fishing. One of the members enquired if swims can be booked in advance for June 16th and the head bailiff says this is fine!
I'm not sure...
Hi folks,
Unfortunately my beloved campervan is in the scrapyard in the sky and my only economical replacement is a little 125cc bike.
Simple question, has anyone ever got to the banks with their rods on a motorbike? If so, how? I only ever carry a small rucksack, 1 rod and net/pole...
That 6th sense feeling you get about a particular swim, or an urge at 2230 to jump in the van on a school night and get down the river as you ''just know'' you're in for something special? Any tales of it coming to life or is it just another justification to SWMBO that you can't under any...

Pair of 5000GTE twin handle baitrunners. Come with a spare spool each. Both in great condition. Selling due to having bit of a thin out and a very painful car mot bill! £offers as I'm not entirely sure what they go for nowadays...... PM is fine. Collection from Huntingdon, Cambs.
