  1. Thanks for that . I looked at bradford city but didnt bother looking at no1 because i thought they were more of a carp/coarse club. Just been on their site though and they have a couple of waters (nidd at pately bridge and aire at broughton) that are fairly close to me so it might be worth me joining them instead
  2. Is this the bloke , dont know if the link will work ,if it doesnt search youtube for sniper sergeant craig harrison . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ooaummFPDA
  3. Is anybody a member of ryburn and halifax anglers or hebdon bridge anglers , Im going to join one of them but dont know which one has the better fishing . Ive looked for info on heben bridge anglers but cant find anything about what stretches they have or where they are . Its mainly the rivers hebdon and calder im intrested in for fly fishing for trout and grayling .
  4. They are taller . Ive had mine for about 18 months and they are still going strong . When it comes time to replace them ill be going for the same again.
  5. wish I'd not bothered staying up for that , totally one sided . Fury did what he needed to do but chisora was a let down
  6. 2x 2-3/4lb Harrison jazz rods , 2x shimano navi big pits , 2x purple delkim ev's with snag ear conversions , 2x Nash siren s5's , 2x matrix innovations dinky hothead hangers , 2x fox slix hangers and spare chains and weights , cygnet snugs buzz bars , cygnet bank sticks , vision kashkym 1man bivvy and overwrap , vision windtex bedchair cover , jrc cocoon exel bedchair , Nash chair , Nash h gun net , korum eva stink bag , nash elevator deluxe cradle , vision floatation weigh sling , reuben heaton 120lb gigantica scales , cygnet weigh bar , jack pyke real tree carryall , trakker jakal quiver .
  7. Mine were the Esk and the lad I worked with had the Tay ones which were just as bad . I remember reading on a fishing forum a few years back that muc boots failed some kind of safety grip test over in the states .
  8. Don't know if they are the biggest but AFW do some 4/0 ones that are 350lb rated. The shop rok-max do some sampo ones with an higher breaking strain but don't know what the size is
  9. Paul blackledge used to have a stuffed ginger one in his back room
  10. Mine lasted 4 months on the farm before I binned them . They are comfy but the grip was rubbish on wet concrete around the yard and once they had worn a bit they were just as bad in the fields
  11. I'll be ultra lighting for chub and perch aswell and my usual barbel fishing
  12. F - flys did well for me last season on the rivers . klinkhammers are also worth using . I don't use wets or nymphs if I can help it but the spider patterns and hares ears caught me fish when I had to use them
  13. I had a go on the canal a few years back and caught on flys I'd knocked up with tinsel off the Christmas tree . Didn't get anything of any size but I did catch . It's not really any different to lure fishing in that if you put a fly or lure in front of a pikes nose they will more often than not just react and take it rather than think about it .
  14. Yes still got the gear . Where abouts are you based and what model delks are they
  15. Im looking to swap a like new drennan silverfish 13ft float rod and ready rod sleeve , shimano exage 3000sfd reel and daiwa 125m closed faced reel plus bait smock , landing net and a bit of terminal tackle for a pair of either delkim ev's or pluses or maybe steve nevilles . Either pick up from accrington or I could deliver/meet depending on distance
  16. I only use floating lines as 90% of my fly fishing is dry fly . I use the cortland 444 peach floater in 5 weight for rivers and small stillwaters and 7 weight for bigger waters . I also use a greys platinum 3 weight on brooks but its not as good as the cortland 444
  17. I dont know why more shops dont sell them , its not like they are any more expensive than the cheap and nasty shads most shops sell . Anybody looking for a good range of soft plastics should have a look at AGM products and lure world (who also do mikado fishunters) . Manns action shads from soveriegn superbaits are also good in all sizes
  18. Anything with yellow will be good for perch . Another cheap soft plastic to to try is the relax kopyto shad . They might look like just another shad but they are very soft and have a top action . Ive had loads of perch and pike on the yellow and the white ones
  19. the ibf have ordered a rematch within 90 days
