    Welcome 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...

    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...

    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.

I blame the sheer bombardment of information that rains down upon us. There can be no escape. Its as though we are fed intravenously b...

    Chapter One Humble Beginnings Caught In The Net I can hardly remember a time in my life when fish weren’t important to me in some way. Perhaps it’s in the genes, after all, my father fished the high seas as a trawlerman but I never fished with him. He died when I was seven by which time...

    Big perch are nomadic in summer, as eager to swim in the fastest current as haunt the deepest eddy as they seek out shoals of prey fish. In winter they will invariably be found in quieter water and this means swim choice is much easier. If you can find an area of steady water below a bend with feat...
