    Bought a pair of 11ft Vertex Medium Feeder instead. So no longer looking for another one of these.

    Maggots!

    What does a pint of maggots go for these days. I distinctly remember maybe £2.50 in my youth.

    Footwear Advice

    Winter Grayling mission

    Thanks Neil. I do like the look of the Frome. Although the 7 day ticket is now £90, if you can get even a couple of sessions in then it’s near enough to the day ticket costs elsewhere on the Itchen, Test etc I’m under no illusion of it being full of 2lb’ers, I just want more variety to my...

    I didn’t even think about temperature control if I’m honest. These seem decent for the money but I accept they won’t be breathable like the more expensive materials would be.

    Opinion/user reviews of the Vass 700 waders

    Are you using it straight through or in a combi setup? Just wondered how it would knot if it’s low diameter
