    No passion for angling?

    Lovely Julian. Different types of fishing is the key. Fly fishing for Zander, Trout, Carp and Pike. Float fishing for all types. Including the challenge of Mullet. Spring chasing tench, feeder or float. And as you say, relax.

    Barbel float Rods. Choice of 2

    Once again I find myself with a surfeit of tackle. Two Rods to offer. I don't need to sell but I would rather they got used. Normark Avenger 14ft. Original condition. ( one of the eyes may have been rewhipped on? Hard to see) Really superb condition. Half the price of New one. £150. Correct...

    Daiwa Rod delight.

    Managed to get hold of a pair of Rods the same as that I first used over 35 years ago. A then favourite of many Barbel anglers that hadn't ever believed that the massive tc Rods used today would ever exist for Barbel fishing. These 1.5 Rods were superb, however they came with a quivertip that...

    Alarmed!

    I started 3 years ago and have had doubles from both WA and LSevern. It took me 2 years to really find a hook and trace setup that worked on the deeper waters of the Severn. I use my standard barbel setup above the hooklink. Breakaway ring , pointed tulip bead onto swivel. I'm generally...

    Alarmed!

    I use alarms when Zander fishing DBs I don't use alarms for barbel. I enjoy watching the rod tip for indications. I'm sitting on my rods, just putting the baitrunner on if making tea or having a wee. If I feel I'm sleepy I stop fishing. Saying all that, I rarely fish more than 2 hours into dark

    Mishap

    Bugger. As you know Cliff, I lost 3 months Fishing with that shoulder/back injury before the season end. Don't push it, steady recovery mate. Then you'll be wading the Wye, bagging up as usual.

    Tench 2025

    But you can book the basic lodge for a couple of overnighter in the best swims. And just to clarify if not clear, Horseshoe can be fished for a few overnighters once you have purchased the hours you want. Horcott have a Tench lake that can be ok someday although heavy weed limits the swims...

    Seal having breakfast in Thames at Staines.

    Yes, you read that right. Big barbel or Carp, can't see clearly having its breakfast at Staines. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1XhWmXNua9/

    Korum Speci Heli Kits - Can they be reused?

    Mike https://ebay.us/m/S0zR2F Unless you use one of these, it's very frustrating trying to rethread heli rigs or tubing.
