Yes it is, Joe, and no it doesn't! I think historically it had a few Grayling, but I've never seen or heard of one from there. The Brownie fishing can be very good, though.

Don't have a problem with them, personally. I regularly fish the river where it all started in England, and as far as I can see they have done nothing but improve it so far. Time will tell.....

It comes with a card that says if you have any problems, phone Gary on a mobile number provided, so I assume that's Gary Mills.

I bought one recently from an online tackle company, but it had to go back due to the spool being slightly out of alignment, which I wouldn't expect from youngs. Nice looking reel, and the rachet is indeed very adjustable.

If you like a bit of Tenching, Eddie, and don't mind a bit of a drive, the Grand Western Canal is a good bet, especially once it warms up a bit.

I can't get on with those, they seem a bit soft and prone to opening out.... Obviously not for you!

The only people I could find were them, have to say the Mags arrived in good nick, although once I had riddled them off didn't look like much of a pint in each bag, or maybe my local tackle shop is a lot more generous?

I would have thought 5 miles was fine. I think the PM went further than that to ride his bike so I dont think you'll have anything to worry about.

Opposite bank Thomas Wood fishery, I think.

I think it got fairly hammered last year, Bill, what with furloughed folk etc. Seemed to be a lot more spots opened up, not all of them requiring a death defying descent!

Regarding Bishopswood, that's correct, day ticket below canoe launch, still about a mile of river to go at.

There were a lot more swims at Bishopswood last year than I've seen before, plenty that were easy to get at and comfortable.

You're going at a good time and plenty of water available in that area. Newport Angling Association control the fishing through Symonds Yat itself, on both banks so plenrty to go at there. Tickets from the Campsite or Saracens head, possibly other places as well. £10. Worcester Angling...

Pretty similar to last winter here, lots of rain and rivers too high. I'm going to get out to my only local spot and have a go for Chub tomorrow, whatever the conditions!

Most beats and all WUF day only, which isn't a problem on the Wye as you can catch plenty of fish in the day.

Or just weigh spool of new braid, remove braid, weigh again, then you know the weight of the braid and can keep weighing as you fill you reel .

I couldn't agree more, I'm going to start by cutting out middle men like the water companies, and have a dump in the river everytime I go fishing...😁

Can't beat The Eye for sniffing things out. Surprised it hasn't surfaced sooner......then again...

Not exactly, several EU countries are also to be granted "emergency use" despite the so called ban.

Nice to see a united front backing the good work the Angling Trust have done for us.
