This quality PVA mesh is available in two popular sizes – 23mm and micro 18mm. The mesh is fast melting, even in cold water. The 18mm size looks perfect for winter when a small parcel of feed is all that is needed to tempt a bite. Both sizes come in 5m lengths.

Featuring a zip-top lid, this bait bowl will be perfect for transporting your bags of groundbait to the bank. It is also the ideal size to mix groundbait well. RRP: £6. 99.

Given the rigours of everyday commercial fishing a quality reel line is a must these days, and this Berkley mono looks ideal. It is nice and smooth and casts very well. Supplied on 1,500-yard spools at a very competitive price, this will be ideal for the angler who has plenty of reels to fill with line. RRP: £10.

Well I promised to give you a ‘warts ‘n’ all’ account, and even tell you when I haven’t caught a lot. Well that’s precisely what I did this weekend, caught very little!Saturday saw me visit Woodland View nr Droitwich for a practice match for the following weeks Sensas/Garbolino match. Now I would love to tell you that this was a 100 peg sell-out, but in-truth it was a very poor 13 pegger! When you consider that the five members of my team that took the effort to go, all went through a 350mile+ round trip (except Denty who would have had a shorter journey had he decided to fish on the moon) it was pretty poor. In fact everyone who attended had travelled for miles, it just proves that as popular as I maybe think it is, commercial fishery silver fish fishing isn’t so!Back to the match and we had a very interesting match, I drew on Back Deans pool and was told that there were hordes of small roach in there.
