Keith like yourself Germany & Europe was my oyster in my 20s & 30s and I very rarely ever came back to blighty,I became fluent in the language because I made the effort to socialise with the locals and the ex pat community. The wesser was the place to fish as well as the Aller and other lovely...

Ian, Not much to agree or disagree on :D:D I can only tell you about my experiences,we all know that Europe is in such a mess now but what I was saying most of it Started from the breakup of the old Warsaw Pact nations and the wall coming down, what has happened in the intervening years was...

after spending 17 years living & working in Germany and having many German friends the worst thing that ever happened to that country was the wall coming down I'm afraid to say, as everything started breaking down after that happened, I had serious thoughts of staying out there with my family...

you sussed out his tactics already chris:D:D:D

One of my friends has just taken the new scottish record for barbel, after 2 seasons of chasing them with not many results but his determination won through in the end. Not a monster but not bad for a fish that people say isnt even present in the river in any numbers..well done Steve :)...

Now I would draw the line at that, just think of it as falklands islands survival tactics incase you have to leave in a hurry....lol, cant have long now till your enjoying the summer?

I was in the florida keys 2 years ago and the bonefish were very scarce then, I ended up with a nice barracuda during my day trip with a few smaller jacks and had one tarpon but had to go out at night after it, thats all I was allowed fishing wise by the boss.
