I originally bought the 26” but use that for Tench now as i found it a bit small, even for modest Barbel. The 32” is perfect and is slightly smaller than other 32” nets as the arms bend inwards slightly under tension. The depth is fine also, not too deep to get caught on everything but certainly...

I used the original Berkley version for quick trips squeezed in on the local canals. Thought they’d be great to keep in the car so i’d always have something to fish with for perch. Very realistic & have a scent but never really did very well on them so stopped using them (must admit i didn’t do...

I always find this interesting ‘i have found them to outfish Halibut 2-1’ By that evidence, they must be twice as good however, i tried them for a season & didn’t really do very well. Did slightly better on the Hinders elipse but noticeably better on Dynamite Halibut. Everyone has a favourite...

Tried all sorts of fancy things over the years but Dynamite Marine Halibut seem as good as anything to me and are ready available at a good (ish) price. I’ve been using them as feed though (6&8mm) with a 12mm halibut boilie on the hair

Think it’ll be in the end of the handle to attach a lanyard to stop it floating away if dropped?

Ok no probs 👍

I’ll have it Rob if it could be posted safely? Up to you 👍

I’m getting excited….& i haven’t even ordered one! 🤣

Anywhere where there are big fish, weather it be Barbel, Carp, Bream, Tench etc will attract a lot of people too. Again, most are at least in their mid 40’s from what i can see. I think it will go the other way and in 20 years or so hardly anyone will be fishing the rivers. We had a similar...

Not sure if we will get to that stage tbh? There is a lot of ‘hard work’ (in the form of less decent access, planning due to levels & just the fact the water is constantly moving & changing etc, etc) which is one reason i think Carp fishing has become so popular…..it’s easy. Not slating anyone...

Done, pleasure to help. Keep up the good work 👍🎖️

Will add / send photos on Monday if interested (away with work all weekend)

I’v got same set up along with ‘Lens Buddy’ app so it takes a series of shots after the initial press (however many & speed you ask it to). Works well & even though i normally avoid Korum stuff these days find the light useful especially when packing up in the dark

There is also Hampton Springs (about 10 mins from Bolesworth) if you want your carp fix? It’s a commercial complex with a specimen lake. Well run, good shop & café if that floats your boat or its too hot for the river

There is Emstrey which is £8 on line. Nice stretch about 11/2 mile of bank just outside of Atcham. Good, safe carpark and a variety of swims to go at? (Theres a few videos on YouTube). https://shrewsburytownfisheries.co.uk/fisheries/emstrey/

You’re right! It did come folded in a box. 👍

I’ve got a brand new specialist 2 rod hard case. £35 + post (£5?) or collect from Crewe if any good?

Think you can do both tbh? I burned myself out back in the early 2000’s in my pursuit of big fish and promised myself it wouldn’t happen again. It’s all about catching of course but i dont nightfish, travel (reasonably) light and still enjoy my surroundings whilst fishing. I also love going in...
