Not seen one for a while, so thought I'd have a revisit of an old friend. The good old braid thread.
I'm about due a braid swap so wondered if there was anything new out there on the market worth looking at? Or even a braid alternative? Be used on the Trent mainly.
Anybody know how to put some kind of counter on here for closed season fishing?...... Walked a mile section of the Don today and seen and told SEVEN today. Either shrugged shoulders or said they were fishing worm. More than likely no rod license either
Hi, any members on here? I'm after someone to second for the club as they've now changed the rules for being on the waiting list. I'm a fine upstanding citizen so there's no worries there. If anyone would be kind enough to propose me I'd be more than welcome to meet for a chat or a pint as and...
Hi all. I'm off to northumberland next week with the kids and was wondering if it's worth taking a telescopic rod and a few bits and bobs to fish of the beach. Was thinking possibly spinners and lures but not really sure, any info would be appreciated
Just wondered if anyone had stopped fishing because of low oxygen levels in the rivers. There's a link on the middle Trent page about reports of a lot of barbel being seen belly up. I think I'm going to leave it until the rivers have had some rain.
Anybody know owt about these reels. The drag button won't turn and I can't seem to get the handle off. I've popped the covering disc out and removed the little springy type thing and the brass reverse thread screw....now I'm stuck. Any help would be good

as the title says! I really seem to be struggling on the trent in the winter floods. Ive tried all sorts of swims and baits but to no avail so any advice would be most appreciated.
Hi everyone I've just bought a storm kettle thinking it would save me a bit of weight in the ruck sack instead of the flask and then realised I would have to take water with me which defeats the object. So the question is can we use river water in the kettle?. Good luck for the new season everyone
