    Hi Nick, it was you that got me into the Duo Core. I think I had a look at it on your Barbel Catchers pin and Harrison four-piece set-up. Since been using it in 8, 10 & 12lb bs with no problems.

    Wensum petition

    I posted this on the Wensum River thread yesterday and I've copied it onto the main board to see if it gets more uptake, hope that's okay with the moderators: A proposed development near Fakenham, Norfolk has been approved by the North Norfolk District Council. No thorough Environmental...

    Barbel on the BBC!

    Spawning footage Hi all Hugh's managed to film some excellent spawning footage for the beeb that will be broadcast on tonight's Springwatch, as well as an interview with him about the Wensum.
