Afternoon all, was just wondering if anyone knew of any free stretches of the wensum that could be worth a fish, I know Hellesdon mill is free was just after looking somewhere else were too.. Kind regards Alex

Had a days session Saturday on the wensum. Chub were hard to find but I did have a good fight with a trout on light tackle. I just find that any good stretches of the wensum are private and the free stretches that are available just get hammered and rubbish left everywhere. Here is my catch from...

Evening all, was up Norwich yesterday just having a much about the river, and there is a fast outlet/sluch at New mills Yard. I didn't know if there were many people from Norwich or surrounding area on here who has fished that stretch of water before, looks very inviting and from what I could...

Thank you Paul. That's today's troubles with fishing, you want to let me know so they can have a chance of catching great fish but other hand your letting every tom dick and Harry know were to go and hammer the waters. I wasn't expecting to much information back as. If people are catching good...

Thank you Phil, that was a very interesting read i never knew about my fickling and his mates. I've driven and walk round it a few times and have always seen fishing boats out there so always assumed there would be some good pike to have had. But has you say maybe not as good as years ago, thank...

Should he some big pike in there all being well. Thanks Chris.

As above has anyone ever fished ladybower reservoir. Myself and the wife normally head up to over Haddon once a year for a peak district fix. And have seen a few boats out on the reservoir, was keen to know what in there or and what people have caught.

Thanks Paul, my local is a lovely river but not always easy to find new swims or access to the river due to private land need accessing,

After not really doing much fishing this winter. I was able to be allowed to fish a private stretch of my local. So it was a quick morning session loaded with hot flask and cheese paste and liqudised bread. Within an hour the rod tip bent round to produce this fine winter chub. Moved 30 yards...

Well done. Must admit have looked at fishing bobs Island before but got told to many horror stories so I stayed away lol.

Afternoon all. I was just wandering if there are many or any at all of the river wensum that is free fishing. I dont live to far from Norwich but not in the know of the wensum. I was told drayton and costessy had a few free stretches but didnt know if this has changed at all. Any info would be...

That's all I use nowdays. Find them neat and tidy with no messing about. 3 simple parts making them easy to use.

Evening mike. Not sure as didn't weight them but 5lb maybe. Will definitely weight the next one. 👍

Decided to join a new still water after hearing of 12lb tench and 14lb bream plus the big carp and 3lb perch. First afternoon was a blank. But 2nd afternoon resulted in 3 carp and 2 tench all late in the day. Baited a small area 2 rod lengths out with maggot pellets and hemp. Then slowly lowed...

Ok Gerry calm down. We will all soon be fishing soon. Barrows or no barrows 🐟🐟

No link I'm afraid. And before you start getting all shirty Gerry I just made an observation that it looks like the korum barrow I have. And have had for many years. I'm not picking an argument just saying what I thought.

I'm just saying it's excacalty the same and cheaper. So if it's excacalty the same then there can't be much difference in it.

Iv got excacalty the same by Korum but I didnt pay that much for it. Worth shopping about. 👍

Thanks guys for your input. Think i will need a good bucket full if I'm to get a barbel to take one in time. Just nice to have a supply there as and when i need them.

Evening all. I hope everyone is staying safe and keeping well. As above I was just wandering if worms are a good go to bait for barbel. Iv read lots of reports in AM and AT a like With barbel catches but dont really read much about worms being used as bait. Mostly boilies and meat being the main...
