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 [...]

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 If anything’s out of date already I do apologise but it was written a couple of [...]

Greetings and welcome to the Late May blog. Might I suggest you make yourself comfortable, perhaps with a drink. It’s a bumper blog edition and you could be here a while. First things first though. You’ve probably seen on the front page of the site that I’m running two angling courses this summer on the [...]

You know, I had a brilliant time at the Barbel Society’s ‘Running Water 2010′ show on Sunday despite the attendance appearing to be well down on recent years. With Dave Chilton (Kryston) and Gary Knowles on the stand next door the insults were always going to be be flying thick and fast. But I guess what [...]

So much to share and so little time. Afraid I’m racing to cram this blog in between fishing sessions and mountains of work. So much for a leisurely retirement. A commission to write a piece for Advanced Pole Fishing set me thinking about how much time I spend pole fishing compared to, say, 25 years [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
