I fished my little river again yesterday. And blanked. That might seem to you like I had a tough day but I had anything but. I had a fascinating day and had I really wanted to I could have caught fish from certain swims, but I didn’t really want to. Does that sound a bit [...]

No doubt excited by the launch of Dinsmores new bait dropper Stu called to say he’d fish out some previously unshown footage that would explain why he never leaves home without a couple of bait droppers in his bag. The footage shows initially shows Stu baiting a few swims with an identical dropper. This alone is an education when [...]

Lee Swords talk to the Barbel Society’s Yorkshire Region at Wetherby was in full swing.

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 [...]
