sixth sense?"i see fish" "big fish" lol
ive only had that feeling a few times but i think its more to do with the way we fish,i seem to know when im fishing well,and when im fishing like a noddy,plus all the knowledge gained through the years.A experienced angler can come across swims that scream fish and he will catch there,but the novice's may not as he is lesser experienced infact he may even pass th eswim bye not giving it any thought.

oh yes...big old wary chevin,hopefully i'll break the 6 pound barrier this year,a double may well comefrom the pits before a river produces one,tho the river would be the one...Mark Ramsden:
"if i could catch a record.....i think it would have to be a chub, very hard to catch, old, wise, seen most tricks...one close to double -figures would be nice-"
i agree chub are bout the most weary of fish a bigun would be a prize indeed

if i could catch a record.....i think it would have to be a chub, very hard to catch, old, wise, seen most tricks...one close to double -figures would be nice-from the lea,an unknown stretch tho.. id love to land a record pike just to see the sheer size of it. the chub is a prospect tho...u never know.....or the first 5lb roach that would be awsome sight...now im dreaming....

tricky one this...
i agree with budgie on this one,if when you arrive you can move your rods to where you choose or cast to where you intend to fish if someone turns up do the right thing and move,it might even go in your favour--if they are sitting on ya lap i can see why people would get annoyed! i sometimes have problems when drifting for pike,lots of carp anglers spread out not to happy about my deadbaits etc being drifted over there baits!
its seems mainly a problem with carp anglers purley because they fish further out than most.i've heard of problems at fishers green too babel anglers dropping baits 2-3 swims away from where there siting as not to spook anything-but no-one else can get in!never understood that-casting to the far bank feature -creep round 'n catch em under the tip...

avon/quiver rod test curves
in Coarse Fishing
Posted
hi all
with the new river season coming up i've decided to invest in a new avon/quiver rod, i have ordered a shimano hyperloop barbel rod,with a 1.75lb test curve,i will be fishing a small fairly pacey river,i opted for this as there are some large carp resident + barbel and chub,to be honest you could hook any one of them!plus streamer weed cabbages etc..i also want to use the rod for tench n bream,i now think the 1.75 is to powerfull and is more for big fast rivers?and i should opt for the 1.5lb version instead but is it powerfull enough?im confused and cant decide to wich will be best for my purposes...help...please...!?
