Morning, Just a heads up to any of you who are from Kiddiminster area or know someone who fishes this area! Be aware!! Idiots need to be caught Fishermen pushed into pool in Kidderminster robbery (From Kidderminster Shuttle)

I like the idea of the AT in that angling will have one true voice - however, i decided to hold back on my membership to the AT after the error by their PR/Medi dept (or whoever it was) that , in my opinion, recklessly released a statement about shooting the seal that is causing havoc in my...

I think it does depend on the size of the river. For instance where i fish on the Lower Severn there has been a resident family of otters for many years and they have not effected the fish one iota. There is also a resident family of otters on my one club water on Middle Teme, whilst i know of...

I think this thread should be closed now- andy's had his say, a few thankyou's have occurred now any extra comments are in danger of upsetting someone and the same thing happening again. Does it matter whose been banned? No- so lets talk about fishing...

After watching the recent episide of Hannibal on living I found out that violin strings are made from animal intestines...

Depends on what time of year it is for me and where I'm fishing. Where I fish on the lower severn I may put 8-10 feeder fulls in at the start of a session and then set up, get comfy, brew up and begin and cast every 15 minutes to begin with. However, on certain pegs that I know hold fish...

I am not old enough to have fished for them when this was the case but did anglers used to be able to claim a reward for killing a zander on the severn ?

Paul, Fair enough and you are entitled to that opinion pal. Out of interest, i'd be interested to know what your view is on the original subject matter of this thread and the other thread, whether it be EE's on this thread of members of that other site being described as "window lickers " on...

Paul, It's like a tv programme- if you don't like it then dont watch it. Whilst neither do I post nor understand most of what the guys on there are talking about I do know a few of them and they are top guys. I'm getting bored of ppl going on about this now can't we talk actual fishing?!?!

Dave, I accept what your saying but the difference is I've had a rant once or twice and you've had a lot more than this. I think the main thing I'm trying to say is that arguing on here should stop pal and ppl should get out fishing more, after all I thought this forum was meant to be...

Joe, My point was on poaching not eating your catch. Interestingly Patrick I've tried zander- was very nice and was caught from an English River by an Englishman .... Good night

Kev, Sorry to hear about fishing the wrong lake - at least you didn't have to use (or lose) a brolly this time mate !!!! But all joking aside that's a cracking post and was a better delivered post covering some of what I was trying to! Contrary to what some ppl say about people from "the other...

Howard, Thanks for sharing that post and yea I agree. However, I think Patrick's original comment is correct. A poacher is a poacher irrelevant if they come from Tipton or Transylvania. As this is a forum where anyone can access the "message boards" section and read it (I think) and BFW comes...

David, I see yourself and others continually moaning about Patrick's posts on various threads so why don't you ignore the posts? If you say it's so easy to recognise Patrick's attempts at getting a bite why do you a bite every time? If he's fishing for "bites" would that make you like the eel-...

The damage may have been from the seal

The various people I've seen fishing the teme illegally over the summer were definitely british. Just saying....

.... and an empty bucket.......

Alex, Nice post. I can see why others may like them but I was just giving my opinion- i wasnt critisising others using them. I don't think anything wrong with them - they just aren't for me! Like you say I can see the attraction with trotting a float with one but I wouldn't be too confident in...

Patrick, One thing i've never fully understood about centrepins.... Most people who use them are using the latest in modern rods, tackle and methods yet want to use a piece of accompanying kit that is, in essence, an ancient bit of kit (even though it has been built in modern times)...

Afternoon, As The seal is now present in both my club water on the lower Severn and the lower Teme I am interested to see what the AT, EA, Natural England etc will do about it, especially as its been seen feeding on fish in the spawning grounds of the lower teme. I personally saw it on the...
