New Film Clips
Posted by admin on October 25, 2010 · Leave a Comment
In the past decade I’ve been priviledged to travel half way round the world and back again with Stu Walker. Quite recently we began filming our adventures, just to create an unforgettable memoir. This in turn led to us making the critically acclaimed barbel Days And Ways series of DVD’s which feature some of the most [...]

2010 – End of October Blog

Ice on the car windscreens this morning doesn’t bode well for my trip to the Severn in a day or two. Guess we’d better get used to the fact that Winter is around the corner and the days of easy fishing on rivers are now probably over until next June. Oh well, mustn’t grumble, it’s been a [...]

Move Along Folks, No Fishing Here… If you’re wondering why there have been no updates on the site for a few weeks or why I’ve not responded to any emails it’s because I’ve been stranded in the Caribbean patiently waiting for a flight home. It’s a tough life, isn’t it? But now I’m back and [...]

2010 – Early April Blog
Posted by admin on March 31, 2010 · 10 Comments

Early April Blog Greetings everyone! I struggled to get out on the bank for most of this week needing to catch up on a backlog of writing. Anyway, I’m back on top on that score at least. Friday saw me heading down to Lakeside Fisheries, near Ranskill. The owners have been good friends for at least 15 years [...]

Sorry about the delay in publishing this March Blog but I’ve been doing far too much fishing of late and when time can be freed up the paid work has to come first. I have to pay the bills somehow! If the writing appears rushed or the imagery falls below the normal high standards I [...]

Well, the news is that this winter has been the coldest for 31 years – even longer if you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland. It has been a bit grim, hasn’t it? I’m writing this on the morning of Tuesday 2nd March. According to the Met Office spring starts officially on 1st March and [...]

Flavour Of The Month Archie (Braddock) rang to say he was making a video about how he prepares his baits and flavourings. Would I care to top and tail it as a favour? At the time I was fishing Walt Bowers lake at North Muskham for carp and had caught some cracking tench [...]

September has been a pretty hectic old month and it’s no-where near over yet but I wouldn’t change a thing. Work continues apace on the next Barbel Days And Ways DVD, or should I say DVDs because we’ve already enough material in the can to fill two disks, but it has been incredibly hard this [...]
