Finally got around to printing a few Stour pics ,.. liked this one so put it above the fireplace ,.. she who must be obeyed even liked it which saved some strife.😀

A couple of the D.Stour looking up and downstream at sunrise from my gaff taken a couple of days ago. I had to reduce the resolution from 45 mp to 3mp to get each one accepted on here which is a shame but I understand why file size has to be shrunk. River is waking up now,.. I’m expecting to...

Sunrise over the D. Stour from Friday. Only a phone pic.🙂

Home sweet home amongst the autumn mists on the D. Stour.

Agreed Trevor,… I thought the name ‘super lite’ was stretching it a bit! Super lite compared with a blacksmith’s anvil perhaps? I’ve used the River brolly for a while,.. it just about fits into my old Korum 2 rod quiver which is a plus as I really hate the 5 rod version which just gathers dust...
