The use of fluorocarbon has become increasingly common in match fishing of late, having various uses.
The release of Pure by Guru has seen a real quality line hit the market, and one that anglers are already raving about.
Firstly, Pure offers the ideal hooklength material for light pole rigs. In diameters from 0.
The WorkHorse! Matt Godfrey takes to the bank of Aston Park Fisheries with one of the latest top-end poles from Sensas…
During the autumn I met Mark Downes at Barston Lakes to look at the new range of Sensas poles. I’m always straight in at the deep end on days like this, and I was no different this time. “Show me the best and most expensive one in the range,” is normally my opening gambit. This year, that’s the 895.
What makes a good shot? We’d say one that has an open, even cut, that can be nipped on to thick and thin lines and stays in place, but can also be moved without damaging the line.
Available in sizes from No8 to No12, that’s exactly what the new Guru shot is. Sourced from the renowned ZLT shot producer, each batch is specially inspected for consistency and quality. In the neat and compact containers, which are secure but also easy to open without spillages, they’re sure to be a big hit with matchmen.
Matt Godfrey smashed his way to victory in the penultimate round of the Lindholme Natural Baits League, winning the match in emphatic style with a 43-4-0 net of F1s. Drawn on peg 9 on Willows Lake, Matt caught quality F1s on maggot tactics.
In second place was Paul Christie. Paul, who also drew on Willows, again caught quality F1s on maggots for 26-1-0.

Webb’s World
Dan Webb recalls the recent Northamptonshire County Cup, and a less than profitable trip to Ireland…
Well, there it is… 12 months have passed since I started writing these, er, chronicles. Yes, chronicles, I like that! Much has changed in that time, although I am a little disappointed that my two-page spread has now dropped to only one page and hasn’t in fact taken over at least 12 pages.
To try and remedy this, I’ve sent Tom 300 photos from my recent trip to Ireland, so he has no excuse for short changing me again! I’m sure at least one of them will be good enough for a cover shot. I may not be an Andy Geldart, but if Des Shipp is handsome enough to get on the cover then I’m sure I am!
Anyway, as I’m writing this I’ve just competed in the nationally prized and prestigious Northamptonshire County cup.
