Where’s the time going? The sand seems to be racing out of the egg timer neck at a frightning rate and it’s all I can do to keep up. Guess it’s my brain’s way of saying slow down, Bob. This past fortnight I’ve been up to all sorts. Last Friday I had the priviledge of [...]

I dropped in on the River Don today at Sprotborough, just with a lure rod plus a bunch of rubber lures and spinner baits. The river above the weir is controlled by Rotherham UAF and it is stuffed with fish. The drawback is it’s deep, probably averaging 15 feet or more, but the bottom is littered [...]

“How many times a week do you think I email the Prime Minister?” Few in the room doubted he was actually telling the truth. Lee Swords talk to the Barbel Society’s Yorkshire Region at Wetherby was in full swing. He’s outwardly confident, manic, eating his own baits, throwing samples out to the audience, raising laughs and putting a [...]

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 [...]

The Complete Book Of Legering (Revised) Chapter 7 The Dink Dink What a method this is. When first revealed in print in the Complete Book Of Legering I imagine loads of readers lifted an eyebrow and promptly dismissed it as a waste of time. It was their loss because I still get approached by [...]

Settle down, make yourself comfortable and prepare to be filled with disbelief, for the tale I am about to tell will be doubted far and wide but I swear to you, every word is true. I haven’t been taking mind altering drugs or even hitting the whisky bottle, this is simply an account of the [...]

Apparently, those who fish rivers on a regular basis will have had their prayers answered this week. After weeks of drought the heavens opened and suddenly the rivers were rising like the clappers. Eighty locations were put on flood watch but within 24 hours it was down to a handful. The water we get these days [...]

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 [...]

Dare you enter the Devil’s Arse? Hmmm, hardly the kind of poster you normally expect to see in a gift shop window unless of course you’re in the Peak District village of Castleton where you’ll find a cave of that name. It goes without saying that this causes much giggling and guffawing among the countless school trips arriving on [...]

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 [...]
