Has anyone been here recently?

Looking at booking here but was looking for some information on what it's like and peg advice before booking.

Looking at getting a set of harrison rods but would like to have a cast with some before I take the plunge.

Anyone know anywhere around the Essex or Hertfordshire area where I could go and have a cast with some before making my mind up?

Currently looking at the below.

Aviator plus 2 13ft
Trebuchet lite 13ft
Aviator TE 13ft

So just fish it naked?

Do you find it tangles much? Assume its fine as long as you're hitting the clip and using a stiff enough rig.

I have a question for tapered mono users.
What lead setup are you using with this when fishingat range?
Are you using any tubing or safezone leader at the rig end?

I need to use this in France due to rules and been driving myself mad trying to decide.

I've just started using one of the wolf kevlar casting gloves, bit dearer but certainly the best one I've used.

I have used the Atropa tube markers and can only echo what old geezer has said.
They are an awesome product but just make sure you use enough weight to weigh them down to prevent them moving around, surprising how much weight they need to keep them in place.

The venue I'm heading out to fish in France this year will require me to use a tapered mono due to the nature of the fishing and lake rules.

I curious to hear from those that have used it as to what lead arrangements you're using and how you're setting up.

Are you fishing it naked, with tubing or with some form of leader?

Wanted to use a dark matter leaders with it as I may end up fishing bags at range and this would make using pre tied bags a lot easier if it was possible to loop to loop it bit having never fished with either tapered mono or the dark matter leaders I'm not sure how that would work out.

I'm out there in September.

What peg do you have?

Heading out here later in the year and was looking for some general information on the place.

Any tips on what works there would be appreciated or info on peg 16 which is what I have booked.

Watched all the Korda videos and quiet looking forward to this trip.

What sort of range are you achieving with it?
