I use these - just be carefull on the boot size Snowbee 4mm Granite Neoprene Bootfoot Thigh Waders

I have just replaced mine - it was that worn that it would only lock when fully extended. I had a good 7years+ use out of it. Sand was the culprit scoring away on the internal surface, mine stopped when I cleaned it.

Mine was a club card - I never got bailiffed in the 4 years that I had one. I have not been bailiffed during the year I did not have one either.

Stephen, imo it is ok, I will only use a short length of mono between braid and swivel when I know I will be rubbing my braid against rocks if I hook a fish. My hook lengths are always weaker than my main line and I don't use braid hook lengths. And I prefer Fireline over the other...

It can depend on the time of day and year as to whether you catch fish in 12-18 inches of water from the Goyt

I was bored so I actually read this thread, I am a little late in joining the debate (for which I apologise) and I just wanted to make 2 observations and 2 statements. From personal experiance I have found reading previous posts saved wasting my time and the others who post on here. The...

Nope it does not.

I have 2 BFW Ipower rods and I am very happy with them, my only regret was not buying them in the first place. The money I used to purchase my previous rods (Greys Prodigy) was wasted. My principle reason for buying them was the isoblob, but I now appreciate them for the blank and I have no...

I cannot really see what difference your mainline breaking strain is rated at - so long as the weakest link is you hook length. Just never pull for a break by bending your rod. I for one started with 10lb mainline and a 1.5lb test curve rod, but soon started changing to heavier line and rods...

Hi Paul, No, I do not believe that they are all virgin fish, but a fish caught away from the circus and other popular swims/stretches to me, will be. Especially from swims and areas that I know no one fishes including you. If I catch them again sometime in the future then they become an old...

Andrew, At Pear Mill you only have 400 - 500 yrds to catch the same fish. Rich, No sniping - just a difference of opinion, I am now very happy to discuss the river Goyt and Pear Mill on an open forum - the horses have left this particular field. Brian, Go to PM for your double...

Mark - a spell checker

Unless you are prepared to search elsewhere on the river - with the inevitable blank sessions.

Full set (Red,Yellow,Green & Blue ) + repeater. These are the MK I and are over 7yrs old. All working - I have repaired the battery connector leads on one of the Microns and on the repeater - well used £100 + Delivery. I will even clean them before shipping. I will post the...

Hi Brian, I have plenty of tips for you - especially if you like catching the same fish. Have a look at the archived threads - loads of info in there. The picture gallery is also a good start - again plenty of info regarding swims. I will meet you on the bank sometime and help you...

I prefer it below - at the bottom end of the crease - not the top

I forgot to say that the sandy bottom swims for me are the ones I walk past because of the local crayfish population. When I do fish sand bar swims I will either fish the gravel / bedrock section when the river is low or cast there and hold back until my bait drops in the crease between the...

I was pestered by many knocks and rattles which turned out to be small barbel once I reduced my pellet and hook size.

Hi Rich, I am sorry that you have had to resort to personal insults, I was only thanking you for confirming the swim, I had always suspected that the swim was a 'good' one. Back on thread - Sorry for the apparent hijack, it was unintentional. Regards, Dave

Don't need one - it is in the gallery 12 fish in a session - for those who have missed it.
