WILF 50,164 Posted Wednesday at 20:55 Report Share Posted Wednesday at 20:55 (edited) @Daniel cain Look up Lough Corrib mate, it will blow your mind……Lough Neagh is another level altogether but that isn’t near me so not one I would be fishing. Edited Wednesday at 20:56 by WILF Quote Link to post

A rib or big sib will keep you safe and there very novice user friendly, last time out on my boat i hit some waves head on that 1/4 filled the boat and made us head for shore for a bail out and dry out,those same waves i would have jumped over and gone back for another go in a rib of the same size as my boat.. 1 Quote Link to post

Bangersanmash 5,257 Posted 17 hours ago Report Share Posted 17 hours ago (edited) Managed to land two today so not bad. Brought my youngest lad with me. Not ten minutes in. " He says we're not guna catch nowt. " Could have kicked him in the river. Lol. From 1 o'clock till 4 nothing. Soon as he chipped home with wife. Not 20 mins in. Caught my first one. He's f***ing bad luck that f****r honest. Then 10 minutes later second rod went to left. Haha. First one rocketed for the over hanging tree right on bankside. Ended up with the line in tree. Like you do I've ended up in river myself. Playing the fish rid tip under the water missing the tree branches under the water. Lucky because it's only about 2 1/2 to 3 foot deep. Ended up on the bank so was worth getting wet. Edited 17 hours ago by Bangersanmash 2 Quote Link to post

Must have a mouth like bell metal. Have a look at these PB products wide circle . I’ve been using them in size 8 for a while now and they are brilliant . They are strong , stay sharp and the hook up rate even with chub is very good Quote Link to post
