Yep, I bought this second-hand, it's an Epic custom build. On tight rivers, they load better than carbon. It's just fun creeping about casting to spooky fish. I love it, the visual aspect.

There is a story with this.......got there at 5am and put usual baits out, then at 10 past 10 I was bored and I thought about packing up, in my bag I found a yellow pop up boilie, I try not to use boilies and cannot remember the last time I used one ,must be years, recast to same spot and 20 mins later had the tench, how good is that, ? was it just coincidence I wonder, so this summer I have had just 2 bites, one was a pb carp and one was a nice tench (after 3 summers without one), I looked at a couple of stretch's of the ouse and I think fate is telling me to leave the gravel pits alone and have a go on the rivers. And that tench was on a old kevin maddocks rod as well happy days

I also spotted the spelling mistake on the front cover of the top CF magazine! (I really need to get out more . . . . :red: ).

Anyone else see it? :grin:
