F-Ribs And Sibs - Inflatable Boat Community

Hi Stray, sorry for the delay, yes, you can launch as many times as you want - all included. I was launching from my trailer and the slip is near the entrance electric barrier so I had to do some james bond style exotic reversing to reverse the boat down on the trailer but worked out a formula to do...

I have both multiplier and fixed spool reels but in the frib on the sea i use the shimano ultegra fixed spool sea reel and have never had reason to change to anything else.

Short rods for me for sea fishing, so much easier to handle. I use a couple of 20lb class shakespeare sigma rods. They have all the grunt I need and coukd easily pull big cod or tooe up to the boat.

Hi all, Not posted for ages but still got the f rib 360 and still getting some great fishing and boating adventures from her. Disappointing theres not more fishing posts on here so here is one from me. Never fished Lomond or stayed there but always fancied it. Had a window of a few of days end of Au...

Hi,

I've had the beachmasters on for a couple of years, I think they are fantastic, I ordered them from new zealand. Cost me a bl00dy fortune, but worth it.
I use my FRIB360 for fishing and have trailered it all over the UK. Any Qs just shout.

Thanks,
Matt.

Thanks Stray for the update. My frib's on a trailer in the garage and I try to get out all year round when the fishing and weather gods allow. The forecast for my xmas time off has been horrendous so far, surprise. But if theres a window ill try to get out. Thanks, Matt.

Had a nice pike on the F-RIB 360 out of Winderemere a couple of weeks back. I've historically found the fishing very hard on Windermere so was very happy not to blank. Other than that, a severe lack of fishing. Any one know of any cod appearing off the Yorks or Lancs coasts? Got a few days off over ...

Interesting read. I am loving my f-rib 360 but would love a warrior. One day. But id keep the f-rib cos its so god damn good and convenient for inshore fishing.

A long time ago when I was a little boy I was on a wreck fishing charter boat out of Whitby. One of the guys pulled in a massive turbot on a jigger (!).The seasoned skipper was utterly gobsmacked both at the size of it and the fact that they were so rare off Whitby. It looked like a huge brown bin l...
