2010 – Bonus End Of September Blog

hemp-2

Everywhere you look there are signs that autumn is approaching rapidly. Officially we’ve got another four weeks before the clocks go back but I’ve a sneaky feeling we’ll be well into winter’s transition by then if the misty mornings and fruit laden trees are anything to go by. Already there’s a tinge of brown to be [...]

2010 – Mid September Blog

optilabs-logo

The Trent beckons tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be heading above Nottingham and fishing for roach but can’t say for certain just yet as it has bucketed down in these parts over the past couple of days. Fingers crossed it’s been isolated heavy showers rather than persistent downpours over a wide area. Saying that the EA River Line [...]

2010 – Mid August

bri-action

What a hectic time of year this is! Since returning from Cyprus I’ve appeared on Tight Lines, spent five days in the Wye Valley, miraculously met five magazine and newspaper article deadlines, dealt with a mountain of visitor emails to the site and as I write I’m making arrangements to visit the Angling Direct store [...]

2010 – Late July Blog (Part Deux)

margin-carp

Welcome back to part deux of what must be the longest angling blog in the world. Mind you, no-one’s exactly complaining, are they? Well, that’s not exactly true. There is the occasional knob head who’s presumably fuelled by jealousy but I rather like that. Shows I’m doing something right. ;-) I find it a little [...]

2010 – Late June

006

New Season News Well the long wait is finally over. As June 16th approached I was buzzing to get out on the rivers and start fishing again. Quite what made me so excited this year I haven’t a clue but I was straining at the leash as the big day approached. My main desire was to dig [...]

2010 – Early June Blog

chub-and-barbel-of-gravels

Not so much a blog this time as practically an entire magazine’s worth of ramblings. This is the longest blog I’ve ever written but you’ve got to admit, says he smugly, it’s a bloody good read – and it’s free! If anything’s out of date already I do apologise but it was written a couple of [...]

Links To Other Sites

            Since launching this site I’ve had lots of help and kind comments from other anglers, web site owners and so on. It would be really nice to thank them in a simple way by adding their links to this page. It’s not my intention to simply list a million [...]

If you’re a fan of barbel fishing you simply have to see these two new DVDs – they will change the way you fish for ever. The feedback from early customers has been phenomenal. One guy was moved to email us and say, ‘I’m a good barbel angler but if I’d seen these DVDs 10 years [...]

2010 Late April Blog

364

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 [...]
