The Caught by the River site would be my recommendation, have a browse: Books :: Caught by the River

During past few years Steve was nearly always at the Tree Stump swim on the bend 2nd / 3rd bend upstream from the footpath. NIce spot with a bit of sun. There's a tree planted and plaque for an angler set back near there.

My copy of Mr Crabtree Goes Fishing. Under the bed clothes

Korum 2 rod quiver I'd say. Good shoulder strap, can't fault it.

My heart fell when I saw that this thread had lept to the top of the page. My sincere and best wishes to his family and friends on such sad news. And to Del and those at the RDAA. The Lower Benyons will be very odd without him, very odd - he was always there and must have loved that place - as...

Yes Ian, Lee, regarding my rant last night, wrong use of the word ‘racist’ and my apologies I stand corrected. I found it hard to read Anthony’s analogy that concluded “immigrants are protected under an EEC directive there are no options for controlling numbers to reduce societal...

It does take all sorts Lee. And yeah Tony I do miss PB and Pete Marshall they would have expressed themselves better; been either more entertaining or informative in the process. Immigration in the uk is irrelevant to the survey and it's not a given that we are all in the same ideological boat...

No personal issue, I've said my piece.

What are you going to tell me that can justify your comments? That you grew up with otters?

Marvellous, somehow turning this report good or bad into some racist rant

Paul. Don't rise to it. Lee going for his badge is all.

For getting to know a smaller river below the surface, I reckon wondering around rolling a bit of meat is a good way of finding out what's going on... or getting arrested.

No personal thing against Paul whatsoever. My view is always tempered by the fact I fish smaller rivers like the Kennet and the Loddon rather than the wide flows of the Thames and lower Severn or the Amazon. On the smaller rivers the thought of such a thing here would, well for me, take all the...

I go fishing to spend time not save it. I can see how it is an advantage to catch fish to have such a thing but that's not the only reason to go fishing surely.

Not my sort of thing with respect... each to their own I guess.

Hence the Eurythmics classic - Who's that Bill? (Running Around With You).

A very familiar face on the Lower Benyons, almost a permanent fixture, he tends to fish the same swim for months. Tragic and not looking good.
