I feel your pain. Lots of hours for not much reward at the moment it doesn't seem to be firing anywhere just now.

If you cant reach the fish you definitely wont catch them! For someone relatively new to casting i wouldnt go beyond a 12ft rod. There are lots of different ways to propel your gear a decent distance and you can tailor your gear to suit you. Most decent 12 ft rods will give you a chance to send a ba...

The guys on here are really helpfull but, the people that put the most in are the ones that get the most out. What you are asking for is the result of 1000s of hours of effort so don't be suprised if they are reluctant to give you what you want.

I have to say its a big walk getting in there carrying your gear and even worse coming back. I carried the kitchen sink in with me as had no idea abo...

Those crystal wagglers work fantastically. They show up even the most tentative bites, i even made some scaled up ones which i used in the sea. You can get them unweighted so you can fish them as a sliding float in deep water. We used to use those bubble floats surface fishing dog biscuits for carp,...
