not a fishing report
Evenin all, our river season opens in a few weeks, so today I went to do a “work party” on a stretch of river that belongs to a small syndicate I am a member of. Our work party normally consists of a good clean up of any litter that may have been left by the winter floods, plus a bit of general main...

Arrived mid afternoon, sun was out in bursts, wind was blowing which made it rather chilly but hopefully the fish would be biting. As Robbie had never fished before, I o...

uk no kayak report
Ok, so its been way to long since I last got out for some fishing, the river season is closed over here, plus my piking is on hold to allow them some respite after spawning, so having a few hours free I headed to a local pond. The rain and hail had eased off and the sun was actually trying to break ...
