I have had my eyes on getting a new camera for a while now. Over the years I have had a lot of cameras; my first camera was a wee credit card sized thing that cost around £12 off Ebay. You just plugged it into the computer and the pictures were there. I had one…
Kelvinography (back of a truck)
We have not had one of these in while I said to myself as I took this picture when I was stopped at some traffic lights. As you can see, a company has decided to call themselves after the mighty K. Kelvinography is the name of spotting stuff named after the Kelvin.
People!
I have met hundreds of people fishing the Kelvin over the years. All different types of people and all from different backgrounds. I have met guys who are super intelligent and people I am surprised that they managed to negotiate their way on to a bus to get to the river. I have met arrogant guys…
Pike Lows and Bylaws
Do you remember a few years ago when I was visiting my nearby Pike spot and could do no wrong? It seemed like every trip I was guaranteed if not a dozen pike then at lest some action. By action I mean some follows and at the very least Pike spooked. This season has been very…
Kelvin in spate – shock !
Laptop is dead so do not expect any fancy posts for a while, this bad boy is being typed on my phone. Out for a run this morning and the Kelvin once more is in full spate. In the distance you can see the raging torrent that is the slush! I also could not help…
2012 Trout Season – you were like a batshit crazy girlfriend!
That is correct, you were like a crazy girlfriend. On one hand you promised so much (the sex was good) however on the other you turned up at crazy times at my house and made unreasonable demands. You were like two separate people, the problem was the crazy part far outweighed the good part. The good part of the relationship…
Milngavie fly dressers started..
..well, it was actually last week actually however I am just getting round to posting this just now due to shock at the trout season ending and a nasty bug AND a bloody sore back due to lack of movement. A triple whammy! Alberto says: The Milngavie fly dressing club goes from strength to strength…
So this is the last day?
So this is what the last day of the season looks like? I say “season” however on the Kelvin it was pretty much half a season. The trees still have leaves and the invasives are still still kicking around. The river looks perfect to be honest, it looks that lovely full up way. It has a nice…
So I visited the Glasgow Angling Centre on its Open Weekend.
And I enjoyed it. Never let it be said that I am a moany bastard who never looks on the bright side of anything, today I spent a good couple of hours in the Glasgow Angling Centre and thoroughly enjoyed my time. Gary Wingate (Game fishing manager or something like that) had asked me if I was coming down…
Broken SLT – returns process started.
So I mailed Gary Wingate at the Glasgow Angling Centre about my broken Sage SLT and the answer was “bring it in and we will deal with it for you” The Glasgow Angling Centre for folk not in the UK and the Americans is this islands biggest fishing shop, it is actually a nice place…
