    Newer Rod Brands.

    Interesting stuff re kompressors , I'll never go fixed spool and braid for beach casting although I do use it salt water lure fishing but still switch back to mono in fresh water. Located a shop that has a few zulcrons in stock but a three and a half hour drive away , may go and have a look this...

    Newer Rod Brands.

    Now that's another one that's been around for some time in the century range ,the compressor SS , not a rod I had ever seen down on the south coast but saw one for the first time only last week in a tackle shop in Devon and was surprised at how slim it is and it felt fairly lite. A Google search...

    Newer Rod Brands.

    I'd noticed how good some of the cheaper course rods were compared to the high end stuff, certainly the actions are as good and often it's just lower end fittings on the cheaper stuff. This is what started me looking at some of the newer beach rod brands on line and reading reviews but I haven't...

    So sitting out the weather on the western side of Dartmoor national park not sure what direction to head to next. Will be here forever another week or so but then do I head southwest or go north Devon Somerset coast.

    Match Rod

    If you go to a match , preferably with a lot of anglers fishing it, you'll see all sorts of rods being used in multiplier and fixed spool configuration. All comes down what suits you and your budget but I would suggest that although the dedicated match anglers that consistently get results and...

    What part of Ireland are you fishing ? Having lived just outside Dublin from 1990 to 1995 I traveled all around the coast fishing and absolutely loved it. As previous post I don't think any of the well known beaches can live up to thier past reputation and most are hit and miss. Social media...

    Bideford Bude area. Don't hear much about it with most news coming from further up the channel.

    I wasn't impressed when when I compared them to my T900's but then I wasn't impressed with the gbfs pro either. Heard mixed reviews on the zulcrons as well but yet to try one.

    Well over thirty years since I've been down here and can't believe how it's changed. I'm on the edge of Dartmoor national park and spent five days walking the rivers and a couple of reservoirs. The rivers don't seem to hold any course fish which I half expected due to the otters but they appear...

    My mate has gone in to tav town for a look at the river but I'm guessing a lot of the river is private or club water .

    Yeah crossed the Avon and tavy on way down and it's not looking good. The beaches are going to be too rough to fish and well I think.

    Been with my daughter, son and grandkids for Christmas and New year then a couple of nights in the new forest. Left today and gone down to Dartmoor but the weather is awful,thick fog and now wind and heavy rain. Don't know what the fishing is like down here but a mate has come down to fish the...

    That's what I had read also but there are loads of conflicting views and opinions.

    Rod bells..

    Just wear a fluorescent yellow mankini and pace backwards and forward around your rods arguing with yourself out loud using plenty of foul language, always does the trick for me. On the rare occasion it doesn't I check my phone and if signal is poor do the above but wave a machete around , that...
