ASK FOR ADVICE

This is where you can ask that vital question about fishing that’s been nagging you for too long. It could be about a certain rig or bait, maybe about groundbaiting or flavouring, or it could be about a simple fishery management problem or a fish behaviour or biology type question.


Prizes donated by Shimano
Whatever it is we’ll hand the question to somebody who we reckon can do it justice, somebody who knows what they’re talking about in that particular field. Sound good so far? It gets better.

If you’re a FISHINGmagic member you can could win a bulk spool of Shimano Catana mono for what we judge is the Question of the Week, and the runner-up will get a 100yd spool of Shimano Exage. Some weeks there could be two runners-up.

All we ask you to do is be specific with the question, and to provide some relevant details. Avoid questions like, ‘How do I catch tench?’ Or, ‘Which is the best hook to use for carp?’ There are too many answers to questions like that. Whole books have been written about catching tench, and there is no one hook for catching carp.

And remember, the more information you give related to one specific question the more chance you have of receiving a helpful answer.

Send your questions to graham@fishingmagic.com.

How often this advice section will appear will be according to the volume of questions we receive.

Any questions received that relate to any other series currently running on FM will automatically be considered for this section and will be eligible for prizes.

Would all winners and runners-up please send address details to Graham so he can post your prize!
