berwick ponds is no longer a day ticket water. the lake opposite called the slips is now day ticket. run by same people (used to be the other way round) verry shallow water quite a lot of fish but not a very big average size. you have to pre book the place as well. i done 2 early morning sessions last year whilst my mates done the night i had 1 fish each session only 3-4 hours float fishing in the reeds near the car park both very low doubles on meat over chopped meat and pellets. ps take some insect repelent.

sold

just done that cheers mate.

allthough i have never been into match fishing i loved reading about frank barlow in the anglers mail years ago. and i think john wilson has got to be right up there with the best.

i use avons as well as a big set of nash scales both of theese seem very accurate reading the same as each other from 2lb up to over 30lb. but if your on a budget the waymaster scales are very accurate and also very light and also very easy to read and adjust.

i had a wychwood ultimate protection that takes 6 rods made up. it is absolute crap. first the tensioning strap snapped. then everytime you put quite a lot of gear in with any weight the shoulder strap slips right down to full length. after that the rubber sheath on the carry handle split. this holdall is only a few months old. i got in touch with wychwood (leeda) and they said take it back to tackle shop. as i bought it online i could not remember what shop it was. anyway my local tackle shop (pro maser angling) agreed to a replacement being sent to his shop with leeda collecting the faulty one. when the new holdall arrived leeda had actually billed him for it and also expected him to send back the old one. when i got home and opened the new rod bag they have actually sent the wrong one (only takes three rods made up). i have sent emails to them and still awaiting a reply. i have actually bought another holdall now as i was fishing sunday but have asked leeda for some vouchers or a credit note. still awaiting a reply. by the way when i looked at the 3 rod holdall it seems to have the same faught with the shoulder strap slipping down as soon as there is any weight being put on it.

i have a sensas bolognaise rod model saone 700. i have had no luck trying to get any information on the rod. it is not something i think i will use that much so will probably sell it. i just dont no its value. the only link i found was through www.bsfiske.se this comes up with some sort of price but i dont even no which country it is from. any help will be very much appreciated.

cheers mate may give that a go if no offers on here,

gorton have you not fished fields weir for the pike. i fished there a couple of years back and had a real good day. no monsters but plenty of fish.

theese rods retail at £132.00 that works out just under half price. i thought this would be a quick sale. i am in the east london essex area. the rod really is brand new still with the rapper on never seen a reel yet.

i have a brand new maver reactorlite match1 for sale. £65.00+posstage

where is this great lake and what is it called. it sounds like a great place to take my kids fishing.

it is very unlikely that the fishery will allow you to use wire as it is no good at all for the welfare of the catfish. and with most lakes that hold catfish they seem to be the main attraction. you want a kryston quicksilver hooklength and a large hook ie 1 0 upwards for fish baits liver squidd etc. or a large carp hook for pellets bollies etc. i had a 30lb 10oz cat last saturday on hair rigged mackeral chunk over pellets on 35lb quicksilver size 1 0 gold label cat hook 2 oz fox grippa lead on a run ring with a light swinger and the baitrunner set very light. i do not claim to be a expert but it works for me.

if anyone is interested i have put some tackle for sale on ebay. including a fox evo rucksack in emaculate condition.it has a £50.00 reserve so is well less than half price. just type in my user name (hunt4299).

i need 2 spare spools for 10000xte baitrunners. club water has just put a 18lb line limit on the cat lake and i dont want to strip my other spools.
