Having only just got into this post subject, if it has not already been mentioned the baa only rent a lot of the waters and I am aware that there are a great number of riparian owners of the riverbank who would not want people on their land at night especially if they have livestock

I am hoping I can find someone on the site who is going over to the States in the next couple of months who would'nt mind picking up a couple of spools 200 yards of Pro Bass signature flourocarbon line 10lb and 12lb from a Pro Bass shop I will obviously pay for postage etc

Just purchased 1 of these off 7dayshop.com and am very impressed. I think it will be an ideal tool for doing those fiddly little jobs ie rig tying etc after dark puts the light beam just where you want it without spooking the fish with a head torch etc which can "spray the light everwhere as...

Was amazed when I went to get a tin of meat in Tesco's they wanted £1.99 I have managed to get some from Co-op at £1.29 was 89p this time last year. Who is selling it cheaper

Line in the States is a lot cheaper for some reason and in some instances a lot better. I have almost come to the end of some Pro Bass Signature Flouro which is wonderful for hooklinks so if you are going over again Steve let me know

Thanks for that jez a real "bit of a bargain"

Growth hormones!!!!!!!! I have been using/chomping bits not given to the fish, for 30 years, never got beyond 5ft 8inches and now at my age I am in fact starting to shrink!!! So it never worked for me

I don't think they are aware of any resistance to taking in a boilie on a braid hair, it would feel like a free offering and my theory is that by the time the hook goes in it is too late to get the bait back up from the throat. Thats how I think it works I can only go on what I have found esp...

Bought a fold up one from Maplins about 3 years ago which has served me well and still does. I see that they are selling some at present for about the price I paid all those years ago

Hi Colin Yes I am using it at 50mm-60mm I very rarely use Pellets for Chub. I am using semi fixed feeder and I am getting better hook ups with a stiff rod (no quiver tip) It maybe that you do not need a revised knotless knot it could just be a different hook pattern, I am using the Korum...

Since the middle of November I have fished 15 times caught 75 chub 5 of which have been over 5lb and another 15 between 4lb and 5lb. I have been using a bolt rigged feeder and a long hair, the reason I have been using a long hair is because when using a short hair with a boilie I was not...

May be easier but not cheapest £36 to subscribe £34. 20 to pick up off your newsagent

I order mine via my local newsagent mainly because CAT does not give any reduced subscription price for paying up front( unless that has recently changed) I have always thought that they could have increased there circulation if they were to do so because it is so difficult to find in many...

I fish some tight swims on the Avon with a Bob Gill, Harrrison blank 1.75 Stalker rod and it is a dream to use. It has handled chub to 5lb 12oz Barbel to 13lb 8oz and even a Carp of 21lb 12oz without any fear of losing the fish and it gives you that wonderful feeling of immediate control. The...

I have been using the Pro Bass Flouro Xline for the last 2 years and it is great with combi rigs, brilliant stuff. I used to have a contact who when he went over to the States would bring me some back from the Pro Bass shops but I have lost contact with him. So if any one is going over in the...

I have an Okuma undertaker reel which I have had for about 4 years. I have always been very pleased with it and never had a problem,until last night when the pin that holds the handle on to the spindle came adrift and became unusable. I took them at there word regarding 5 year warranty and...

Glad to see that there is an on line petition included in this posting

Same with me a great bag and the strap adjustments are very good to ease carrying would not know what to do without it.

Treffor West short links Ian Welch long links!!!!! both good Barbel anglers what they both have in common is confidence in there respective methods. In the past I have always had short links but this season decided to fish longer 2 - 3ft combi rigs (braid/heavy flouro) and my Barbel catch rate...

My best was doing an all nighter on the Hampshire Avon back in the 70's just after dark I baited up and cast out it was a wonderful warm dry night with just a slight breeze. After about 10 min the end of the rod started to twitch and then it stopped then another little twitch this went on for...
