Neil Last week I sent an e-mail asking United Utilities why they have not got a hose pipe ban in place. Next day I got a phone call, the manager started off by saying "We have everything under control", It was the usual PR rubbish these people spout. I told him I was busy, so would he send me an...

Well done Tony for posting, it’s not news to me as you know, the UU have been telling lies all along. The EA are no better. Another failed group of people who don’t care. You witnessed the latest pollution last week.

Dave I couldn't agree more, its what I have morning noon and night.

Very sad news, a nice guy and good angler RIP Brian

A great new great result, the sentence should have been at least 10 years, and confiscation of all his funds. Perhaps other will think before destroying the countryside and its wildlife from water to land for personal gain. Now lets hit the water company bosses and shareholders.

Hopefully being mobile and enjoying my angling

I find him a pain in the butt he is a dangerous person with his comments about country sports. I get fed up with hearing all these people bleating on about there health problems and mental health issues through lockdown. My mates and myself lived through the bombing and doodle bugs etc, we only...

Well said Angling Trust, certainly a common-sense approach.
