What makes this whole scene a lot more comedic is when you realise the bench is in fact in the middle of a weir… At least it is a nice view.. It takes the […] How do you deal with poaching? – not the serious big stuff involving nets and and stuff I am talking about the low level stuff involving a guys just fishing the river without a permit? I managed a couple of hours on Sunday afternoon and it was spoiled by having to talk to a few […] Chaps, you may or not be aware that I have not exactly been the fittest of specimens over the last year or so.
