2010 - Early SeptemberBy admin on August 31st, 2010 | 3 Comments
Before I start let me just say this blog may differ a little from my regular blog, more of a travelogue perhaps, but things will probably be back to normal next time. I made my first trip to the Derbyshire Derwent in two years and it was easy to recall why I like this river so much. Small enough t... -
2010 - Early June BlogBy admin on June 7th, 2010 | 7 Comments
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 If anything’s out of date already I do apologise but ... -

2009 - Late July BlogBy admin on July 21st, 2009 | 6 Comments
I’ve gone mad, it’s official. A year ago I gave up the day job and put together the kind of early retirement plan I’d been dreaming about for more than a decade. It was going to be a life full of indulgence with three days fishing in the week and lots of weekends away with the better half. A y... -

At last the ’real’ fishing season is in full swing again so here’s a bumper edition of the blog for all who love their fishing… Either that or someone’s bought a voodoo doll and these twinges have absolutely nothing to do with my pole fishing and everything to do... -
Tales Of The Riverbank - Part NineBy admin on June 14th, 2009 | No Comments
I haven’t fished a match, as such, for more than a decade but a competition that did grab my attention was the UK Angling Masters Championships. What an event this was and how sad that it didn’t become a permanent fixture in the angling calendar. The invitees included the winner of each o... -
2009 - June BlogWelcome to the June angling blog. If you’re a new visitor then I hope you enjoy it. I try to tell it as I see it and occasionally inject a little bit of wicked humour but do beware, there’s an odd swear word here and there in the graphics if you pay close attention, so please don...

2009 - Mid-May BlogBy admin on May 15th, 2009 | 15 Comments
As the days lengthen and the thermometer rises I find I’m buzzing around like a blue a***d fly. There’s so much to do and I haven’t even renewed a single club ticket yet. Mustn’t make the same mistake as last year, eh? Lost out on a ticket I seldom used but it was nice to have if only for th... -
2009 - May BlogBy admin on May 7th, 2009 | No Comments
Well, a month has flown by and I’ve done precious little fishing. Mind you, I was ready for a break from it if truth be told. There comes a point, especially if you’re struggling to catch a great deal, when you can find far more pressing matters to attend to. And it’s good to maintain a balanc...
