Thanks Andy, yes it's a bit special that reel.i just had to repair it as the anti reverse stopped working! All OK now. Its my chub quiver tip reel.. I've had it for a few years now probably over 20 years??
@chasingshadows-ananglingob2295 I have a shimano aero 6000re that I've had for approaching 20 years now too, had it serviced this year and it's great. Use it for barbel fishing on the lower severn. Good to see yours still going!
I'm going to join ringwood in January Brian. Been thinking about it for a while now as I'm only up the road really (andover) and the Thames just seems to be out of condition most of the winter months..ps I'll try not and fall in 😂
Up here in the midlands we've had slightly mild misty days (more for barbel) but not been out mate, you vids always liked and watched my mate always looking out for them. Proper fishing ...up the rams 👍👍
It's a korum carry strap. I think I got it off ebay for about £12 and then I used a couple of heavy duty cable tie to make a loop on my chair for the strap to contact to. 😊
Hi Keith, thank you for watching. It's an old multi tip TFG rod. But I'm lead to beleave that they were free spirit rods badged up by Matt Hayes. Brilliant rods I've got to say and they are very sought after too so I believe??..I have seen them on ebay going for £100+😮
Lovely video Dave , strangely despite fishing the Berkshire area for the last 10 years I have never seen or fished the kennet , spending the majority of my time on the loddon …. Perhaps one one I will get over your way 👍
@@chasingshadows-ananglingob2295 I am afraid the loddon is a dying river even compared to just 4years ago , I know so many anglers have given it up as a waste of time , however I keep going in the hope that just maybe there may just be a monster lurking …. Look forward to your next video 👍
Great you are back😊
Thanks Mark, good to be back and making new vids for my followers. More to come in 2025>
Well done Dave saved the blank…Happy New Year to you as well and many more tight lines..🎣Neil
Thanks Neil and a happy new year to you buddy..🎉
Great vid Dave, know that stretch well, never felt overly comfortable at night there, had some great chub from there though 👍
Yeah I know what you mean. I'm forever looking over my shoulder at night there..😮😊
Good effort Dave, thanks for sharing. Look forward to more vid's in the new year 👍
Thanks buddy, yes there will be more chasing Shadow videos in 2025> Thanks for watching.
Love the classic stradic reel!

Hi Dave, nice video again. We have all been there, when trying to land a Chub.
Thanks Martin. That little chub did give me a right run around in the waters edge.. lol
Great video, keep them coming in the new year & tight lines

Dave where did you get the carry strap for your chair

I follow your video's and this is the first time I've commented what rod is that please?

Hi John, thanks for watching the video, i used to love fishing the Loddon, but i do find it difficult to fish these days for one reason and another...
