Have a look at Fortis clothing, they supply many military/police units including the SAS,...waterproof ripproof and very warm. I would recommend the Falklands fixed coat or Smock,

Fella's have been wearing crampons on the Wye for years and years. Steep-sided banks on a river the floods continually dropping slimey slippy silt everytime it does.... They work a treat and easily fitted to strong sturdy boots.

See the Mail are reporting that Koi carp worth £10k have been eaten from a pond in the barbel hotspot of Thetford in Norfolk!! Doesn't seem any fish are safe from the otters.....

Thanks to anyone that posted,from what people say not many barbel in this little river....oh well i will give it a walk in the summer when hopefully we have some clear low water

Howard, PM Ed Green a member on this Forum site,we both have Abu Suverans... (Infact a number of them) and he knows a gunsmith/engineer who services our reels. It costs me about £35 for two reels that are stripped down,cleaned,oiled and put back together. We get them done every year....and...

Forget the brollys, try a poncho.no need to erect,no pegging out,less room taken up,...just slip on and stay dry all over, far cheaper,and when your moving about fishing various swims,an ideal bit of kit,does me,in any conditons

An interesting read....
