Shimano Baitrunner X-Aero RA Reel

Hi guys,


Preference - being more suited to barbel fishing than carp ( extra bonus of not having to buy extra reels when the rivers closed).

I want to upgrade my barbel reels and was wondering if i went for the higher end of reels whether i would also be able to use them for a little bit of carp fishing?!

I have been looking at the shimano x aero ra 6000 series,

Any other suggestions would be appreciated! ( i mostly fish the Severn and avon.)

Cheers

Re: Bailiffing

I have had the same issue at bid-ford recently! one bailiff there who is about 50 is absolutely lovely! speaks to me with respect and is a generally nice person to chat to and ask for advice. he used this rule with the exception as you would expect lets you fish a hour into dark as long as u pack up pretty quick and leave after! however the younger bailiff they have who comes with his 'mate' are very pushy and state the hour after dark is for you to pack up and leave the premise before the hour is up which as someone else has stated how can they force you out of a public walk way! if my rods arent in the water im not fishing. it's also really annoying as i always seem to catch at around 9 alclock! i was there last week and got a large barbel which i was fighting with for about half hour, the bailiff expected me to cut the fish off or pack up with enough time to ensure i couldnt run over even with the chance of catching a fish. so basically telling me regardless of circumstances he wants me packed up in my car and off the water before the hour is even up! with the 15 minute walk and packing up that means you get 20 minutes of dark fishing
