Good response as always from Rudi when it comes to shooting heads and I pretty much agree with all that he says. I use SH's for most of my sunk line still water trout bank fishing because I find them so much more 'handy' than full lines. They are quick to aerialise and quick to get back out in the ...

Hello Rodger. I can't think why a shooting head would be deemed 'unsporting' because it is a perfectly legitimate way to cast a fly. If the fishery concerned has decided to ban their use for reasons known only to themselves that is another matter and their use in such circumstances shouldn't be con...

Even a £600.00 rod doesn't do much apart from look pretty. It just sort of lays there, looking like a carbon tube with guides attached and a handle. Seriously though, I've always preferred the expression - ' make the rod do the work' rather than; ' let the rod do the work'. The caster of course mak...

Hi again Frank. Just one thing to add - if any individual is never going to need a #3 weight or a #12 weight outfit to fish with why should they invest hard earned money to buy one just so that they can show how good they are with it to anyone willing to watch and listen? I still maintain that a go...
