Hello all,
Jeff Edisbury here. Thanks for letting me in.
I'm coming up to 50 years fishing. I'm retired and live very close to the Severn at Bewdley.
I've fished for most things in that time but these days, tench, roach and barbel are my main interest.
An avid collector of cane, pins, anything Allcocks and above all, floats and winders.
I am also interested in angling history. Mainly the Redditch factories at present which was the main reason for joining the group.
Making my own floats takes up a good chunk of my time also.
If there is anything I can assist with, please let me know.
Best regards,
Jeff

I was going to say it is a very slippery slope from here in but is seems you have already slid down it. Welcome aboard Jeff.
If you have no grease with you, and your rings are full of ice, do not cut out the ice with a pen-knife but get your man to put the rings one by one in his mouth, and so to thaw the ice.

Pull up a pew, pour a favourite tipple and enjoy the banter….
