I used to use the avid ones aswell Lee but struggled to source them. Just buy the fox ones now ,with a groove down the face for fishing drop off style.I grip them gently in a vice and hacksaw the groove deeper till it breaks through to the centre hole. The existing groove helps as a guide ...

Well we had some good news down South back in 2020 when permission was granted and work started on the first new reservoir since the 1970s just North of Portsmouth. It is hoped to be completed by 2029 and should relieve some of the abstraction of two of our nearest chalk streams the Itchen and...

Have you been chatting to a certain Mr Horak then Joe ,that sounds very much like an approach he would try .Next level Bait n wait . Now there’s a bloke who knows a bit about catching the bigguns.

Yeah I think I will Bill , I’m keen to try out a new venue. 👍

Great session there Bill,you’ve got me thinking about making an earlier start to my own tenching than I normally would . Did you give the boilies a try ?

👍😊

It’s gonna be a long enough three months for some of us ,could really do without people like you posting this ‘filth’.😊

Blimey that didn’t take long Adam ,it’s only been 8 hours .😊

Thanks Graham it’ll happen one day mate, probably out of the blue,that’s what I keep telling myself. They’re handsome fish no matter the size and I’ve had seven and eight pounders fool me into thinking they were carp on the first couple of runs. As you know only too well you can’t beat a bit of...

Thanks Bill , as an ex carper I still roll my own and use the close season tenching as a good time to experiment. If you find a winner it’s a good confidence booster before the start on the rivers I find. My present barbel bait was discovered that way . Keeps it interesting. Good luck

Well I can’t lie Steve they’re actually all nine pounders.The last one I thought was going to be my first double but proved to be a couple of ounces shy. I’m only slightly taller than an umpa lumpa which can make some things appear larger than life . Alas not all things 😊 They were all caught...

Just my humble opinion, but they do certainly seem to appeal to the bigger girls.:)

I have used Robs services aswell Terry and is indeed a very talented guy.Can even change the background ,if you wish,which could be handy. :) He can be found on ebay just punch in HAND DRAWN FISHING PORTRAIT Lovely brace of linears there Gerry especially for that time . I agree with Terry in...

Is that Andy Little ? 😂

Very sad news , another goodun gone way too early.

Would definitely recommend Mark Tunley.He did my chimeras a few years back and a nice fella to deal with.

So they’ve finally released a nice olive green version of the hideous black and blue monstrosity.Its only taken about five years.

Hi Chris, I was having a bit of a sort out earlier and I came across a packet of these very stops you’re after.Did’nt know I had them to be honest,might keep you going for now. I will send you a PM, give me your address I’ll pop them in the post as soon as i can ,no charge. Also with regards the...

“I suppose you expect me to talk?” “No Mr Bond, i expect you to look at my bobbin collection !” 😊

I do the same , trouble with flasks is the time of day when i really could do with a hot cuppa or something hot to eat is the evening or dusk and most flasks i’ve tried any drink left is warm at best. I managed to source some small containers that means all my ingredients ,tea...
