So, I’ve always been very much a 2oz lead and 3ft flouro hooklength setup when out on the river but Monday evening I was forced to change it. I decided at 5pm to head down the the W.Avon for the last hour of daylight before I I went on holiday the following day. I arrived at the bank and...

Someone got a bargain here.

Hey - do you have any photos of the Greys x2 rod holder please ?

I have a 14ft Cadence CR10 No2 for trotting duties. I partner it with a JWY Ray Walton rolling pin but they work well with a light reel. Lovely rod and well priced. That said, any 14ft by Drennan would be just as good.

I have x2, they’re as cheap as chips and bulletproof. I use them mainly for barbel when night fishing and with the accompanying snag ears. Also, I’d have no qualms buying any Delkim stuff 2nd hand either as spares are readily available.

We stayed in Hole in the Wall, Ross on Wye last year. The river is a 4-minute walk but you need to book it on the Fishing Passport (beat name = Foy Bridge). https://anglingstays.com/listing/stay-by-the-wye-the-annexe-herefordshire-wye-valley/ The swim directly over the bridge is perfect for...

My mate got charged by a bull once on the W.Avon. He had to do the same and dived into the river in the middle of October.

Always best to ring him as he’s pretty old school.

No worries - he gets super busy so book up quick. Bear in mind the Wye is pretty low at the moment.

I’ve just PM’d you

Poaching more like aka Greengrass 😂😂😂

Looks like there’s an attempt to bringing an angling event back to the Midlands. The focus being: Match / Course / River / Pleasure angling. The Big One used to be at Stoneleigh but struggled after Covid and to be honest the last event had turned into a Carp-fest with very little presence from...

Yeah that’s the one. He’d fished there before a while ago so knew the craic with paying on the bank. But in the video he asks “can I fish here” which says to me he knew it wasn’t open. It all kicked off (rightly so) on a FaceBook group with the deceased owners daughter confirming 100% it was...

Yes I’m talking about there. I’ve never fished that side. The other side has been shut for a while as the owner passed away, but people have been fishing it after cutting the locks and ramming the gate open. Caused a bit of controversy the other week as someone put out a YouTube video fishing...

I think it’s the place above MF. The other bank is closed until further notice but that side can be fished with a day ticket from the pub (apparently).

Anyone looking for this it’s Rob’s (although technically he is a Bob) Angling. Agree re the W.Avon, reports of smaller Barbel being caught during matches on my local stretch. Definitely a good sign for the future.

Baby Balistas ?!?

Saw something about this today. Is it the entire company (rods / clothing) or just the bait side does anyone know ?

If you’re after large hemp buy it in person so you can physically inspect the size of it. I’ve bought large Chinese hemp online to then open it and it’s tiny and full of crap. That said the new stuff from Hinders looks good. The price of hemp is crazy now as the natural oils are used in the...

Other options are Manor Farm (W.Avon in Evesham) and Berts (Severn in Highley): Both allow you to park behind your swim and overnight fish.
