2011 – Early September Blog
Apologies for the lack of site updates this past month but I’ve barely been home! Hopefully normal service can now be resumed again. The month began with a disaster. What kind of idiot puts unleaded fuel in a diesel van, eh? A distracted one in my case. There I was rushing around like an idiot, [...]
2011 – Early August Blog
Bit rushed at the moment so you’ll be relieved to hear this is one of my shorter blogs. Afraid I simply don’t have enough time just now to include everything I’ve been up to over the past week or two so maybe they’ll drop into the next one. But where shall I start? I was booked [...]
2011 – End Of July Blog
Welcome to yet another blog. Lots to cram in, as always, but it’s a blog with a twist this time. I’m even including a sea fishing trip and a bit of fun. Enjoy this one as I’m going to struggle to find time for writing during August as I’ll be here, there and everywhere but fear [...]
2011- Mid July Blog
I’m going to kick off this blog with a trio of kingfishers as I can think of no other bird that fills me with the same excitement when one darts past when I’m fishing. There’s something about the sharp, irredescent colours that tell me I’m in a special place sharing my time with one of [...]
2011 – Another Early July Blog
I fished my little river again yesterday. And blanked. That might seem to you like I had a tough day but I had anything but. I had a fascinating day and had I really wanted to I could have caught fish from certain swims, but I didn’t really want to. Does that sound a bit [...]
2011 – Early July Blog
Greetings everyone. Make yourself comfortable because this is one monster of a blog. My intention was to publish it next week but it just seems to grow by the hour, almost organically. So much has happened in the past week it’d be pointless not to share it with you sooner. I do hope you’re catching a [...]
2011 – Late June Blog
Let’s kick off the river season in style with a bumper blog that’s rammed with all manner of fishing issues, great catches and a bit of fun. There’s a serious message or two plus a few images that capture the very essence of why we bother to go fishing at all. It’s a proper old [...]
2011 – Mid June Blog
As I write there are just 10 days to go before the river season opens and I’ve so much to pack in before then. As always I’m running rather late in sending off my ticket renewals and one or two may not come back in time, but hey-ho. It won’t be a real problem. I [...]
2011 – Early June Blog
This was originally going to be a rather short blog but as usual I got carried away. My intention was to make a few excuses about being completely strapped for time but it’s probably true that the devil finds work for idle hands. I did have an hour to spare the other day while waiting [...]
2011 – Late May Blog
I’ve been out a couple of times this week and been battered on both occasions. The first trip was with Marc Johnson to the members lake at Tyram Hall. It was a freaky day in that we hardly saw a carp move and usually they are quite active in the clear water, cruising around with [...]
