I visited the Big One show at the weekend and here are some images and a short video from the show. Also some news on a tackle giveaway coming very soon.

Glad to see you out and about and making the trek to the Midlands. I took a drive down on the Sunday morning to take a look having never been to one of these events before. Well I fell in love with a Cadence 11ft #1 float rod and the cs10 reels so they've come home with me.... I think the rod might even be a match for the drennan ultralight that you use on your videos. I was also impressed by the freespirit match and feeder rods the 7ft quiver looked seriously interesting and not just for carp puddles. It's a pity Middy didn't attend would have been interested in comparing their poles to the usual suspects. Perhaps they will go to Farnborough. I thought I saw Browning poles on display at the show opposite to the main pole alley. Hope you have a good time at Farnborough and look after your self. Looking forward to a bit more stable weather and getting out again.

Russell Jones Hi thank you for the nice comment. I can’t comment on the Cadence rod as I haven’t looked at one yet! But I will at the Farnboroigh show. The Drennan can be used with hooklengths of 12 ozs so it will have to be brilliant to match it but I will take a look. Rods, poles etc are a very personal thing and one man’s meat is another man’s poison, all that matters is that you are happy with your rod! Bill

Great to catch up with you and have a chat. I'll be interested in your thoughts on the 501 pole as that's the one I was looking at.
@easyfishing19364 жыл бұрын
Richard Pope Hi yes I always like to meet my viewers. Now that 501 was a nice pole but I would like to compare it side by side with the Daiwa G90 and the Drennan Acolyte pro carp. I did nip over and try the Matrix MTX 3 which felt similar. Personally if I had the funds I would get the Drennan Carp as the top kits are all the same length and the roller cone system in my opinion is the best on the market, and spares situation is great, but at the end it is down to personal preference Bill

Still cannot get my head around buying a pole. Once you buy all what is needed, I could spend more on venues?
@easyfishing19364 жыл бұрын
Phillip Richards Hi well I consider the short pole, between 6 and 9 meters, an essential item and you would be surprise how little everything you need costs. A good pole can be had for under a £100. A cheap roller is about £14 but you can get by with a big ‘ V ‘ roller on a screw in bank stick, a feeding pot the biggest Preston one is a couple of pounds or so.. A ‘tulip’ grip or a sock type less than a tenner and that’s it! If you don’t want to make your own rigs the Drennan ready tied rigs are perfect. Recently I bought a Drennan Margin Carp s/h for £70 for a video for example so don’t be fooled into thinking you need an expensive pole etc. Bill

Phillip Richards Hi well I have just had a look on eBay for a cheap take apart pole and found a few that will fit your budget. The Middy White Knuckle 6 mtr pole is available for about £45 and has a spare top kit both of which are elasticated, bargain! The later 8 mtr version which is more versatile comes in at £85 pounds. You can get a cheap fibreglass Shakespeare model for about £25 and I had one years ago and caught a lot of fish on it. Now at that price it’s a real bargain bucket job as long as you don’t expect too much but they do catch fish! Have a look on eBay Bill
