wolfie10 really needs help

I would always suggest that you learn to fish with a rod and reel first. As far as I am concerned it is more versatile in that you can fish different methods for any fish that swims and as a beginner you can get away with less experience. A pole is more specialised and needs experience to get the best out of it. Used Tackle have a a float rod and a quiver rod on offer in Angling times this week at £20 each, I have two of the float rods and for that money they are brilliant. They will handle small stuff but will also cope well with bigger fish, I have had carp to 12lbs on mine. don't get carried away by thinking you need to spend big money on tackle to catch fish, I have only one rod that cost over £50 (a John Wilson quiver which I hardly use) the rest cost between 20 and 35 from Used Tackle or Shakespeare, not much bank cred but they do what it says on the tin!

 

I have started with a rod and weel i have to of them and have never cought a fish,

 

|HOWEVER when i did pole fishing with a whip i cought more fish in one day then someone else could stitting in the same spot aka (me-10 fish) (other fisherman-1 pike)

 

DO YOU GET MY POINT,

Wolfie what venues are you fishing??? You can name the stretches then either i or a few others might be able to help you specifically with those areas. As i stated before i wouldnt consider a whip if i was after chub. Although you can bash out bleak on one in the summer you'll find them hard to find in the winter on the ouse. And it really is stck , waggler or bomb and feeder.

Okie dokie the river ivel i'm assuming you mean common and back meadows and another section i forget name of lol. For back meadows and common you really cant get by with a whip if your after the chub , Knowing these venues aswell there very peggy for lots of water your only talking 20-30 pegs that produce on a regular basis all the way down to widow hay. If you go in Leslies and chat to Sam or Dave Sayce (if hes still there) They could give you tips on which pegs to fish with one of the maps they have. Water end fisheries i never fished before i moved so dont know much about it other than it has some decent carp in (again not to be attempted for with a whip) the hit and the flit are both very small streams that i never bothered with. from your venues i can approximate where in beds you are and clubs to consider joining would be luton ac (ipa affiliated and cheaper to fish tingrith) Ampthill ac (has ampthill res , plus a section of ouse at willington) blunham but not sure what they have and i think shefford has a club aswell.
