It has been a good fishing month without doing a vast amount of fishing if that makes any sense whatsoever. It has been good in that I have caught up with lots of friends and acquaintances at the Barbel Society National Convention that was held somewhere below Leicester and into Warwickshire…I cannot be too specific […]
May is almost here already and my “fishing mojo” is all but inactive, I just cannot be bothered sitting sitting around a pond ( or dog shit covered canal towpath). As I feel at the moment I am in no rush to get out and about…Although the carp monkey is still chattering away on my […]
Perch Fishing! Well it is time for the April Fishing Blog on Lee Swords Fishing…I just wish I could say I have done much fishing but alas I have not, these are the “Mundella” months and so I have been otherwise engaged for the most part but last week my mate Dan Stewart Smith phoned […]
And so the river season draws itself to a close just as the river was getting in to fine fettle after suffering three or more months of flooding and shite weather, the weather windows this passed winter have been rare and brief but I will not moan too loudly for as a Trent angler first and […]
It is that time again when I post up another fishing blog, well I have finally managed to get some fishing done that hasn’t ended in the disaster of a blank although I must admit I did lose a very big carp on the Trent a week or so previous that had me really contemplating […]
February Blog… The one with tits in it…And some finches and a few thrushes!! At this point in time birds fascinate me far more than fishing does, the weather is shit and the river is out of the banks and running through like a steam locomotive, taking my mojo with it. I have no inclination […]
Thermals And so we are into January, that being the case, here is my January fishing blog part 2…and seeing as it is cold, let’s start with my thermals…I went …I saw…I pondered…I bought another set of Korum Thermals. They do what they say they do on the packet and as long as I don’t […]
January fishing blog already? You are having a laugh!! Where the Hell did 2013 go to? Well it is correct what people say about time passing faster as you get older, it certainly does!It seems like only yesterday that I was reluctantly walking away from the river in March only to be back on it […]
Dreadful December! I don’t like December, I never have done never and I never will do… Ok, I accept that the Christmas part is nice but the rest of it is just plain shitty, its not quite cold enough its not quite dry enough, its bloody expensive and I have to work a lot, which […]
December Fishing Blog…Already!! I cannot believe how fast things pass as you get a bit older…Time for the December Fishing blog already….Just where did the summer go? I am not a fan of winters although they do give me the chance to get some proper chub and pike fishing done, in conditions that are for […]
