He's 68 and has Parkinsons - balance is poor, so need a venue with good access and fairly safe banks, not steep. Which venue would folks recommend? Only going on the venues I've fished so far, I would have to say either Wood Bevington (Disabled access excellent, park behind pegs), or Swan pool whic...

They've got me there, I am a small rod holder!

But I've also got a big gut, so it wouldn't make any difference.

The following review is all my own personal views based on one visit and may change if I make future visits. I do not intentionally wish to offend anyone with my views. I have mixed feelings about this venue.... :) I think it is in a good location and the surroundings are lovely. But..... :( What sp...

First session at Wood Bevington 03-07-2010

I fancied a day of catching silverfish so headed to WB and was not disappointed; what a lovely venue. The day started at about 7:00 fishing an insert peacock waggler about 3 inches over depth where I was straight into four Crucian's, and what lovely looking fish they were too. I proceeded to catch P...

Another cracking session on Pool 1

I had another cracking session on pool 1 Saturday 19th from 12:30 to 16:30. I fished the waggler again about 4-6 inches overdepth, starting on 3 maggots on a size 14 hook to 3lb hook length and 4lb main line. This brought immediate action with Perch and Skimmer, whilst also feeding maggot and Poundl...

The Glorious 16th - NOT!

My Wife (very understanding Wife) dropped me off on the bank at 05:30 and as I was having to hump all my gear I chose a near peg; peg 17. It looked great for trotting a stick as it was clear and open on both sides but more so on the left, which was ideal. Once set up I came across my first disappoin...

Recky visit to the Avon at AS

Went for a gander at the Avon this afternoon in anticipation for the 16th. I see there has been some mighty fine work in clearing the bank growth to the pegs and bank track, so a big thank you to those involved. The river is running quite clear at the moment and the fauna is looking good with the wa...

What comes first, fishing or football?

After seeing Pete's post about England's performance in their first World Cup game I thought it would be interesting to see where other members passion really lies, Angling or Football. Personally I have no interest in football and so I do not have to face that dilemma. So if it came to it and you h...

Pole bush size help

If anyone could help source a pole tip bush (internal or external) to fit my whip 2 section WITHOUT cutting back for a light elastic up to a No6, I would be grateful. I have scoured manufacturer websites, but they don't like giving away full technical details about bush dimensions. I have even email...
