    Congratulations Phil Nixon on Hants Avon record

    I wouldn't normally dream of posting what I'm about to do but your ill informed and derogatory comments about a picture I posted of a witnessed 48" long salmon gives me a tad of leeway. Whilst I couldn't give a stuff about your willingness to denigrate another's capture purely on the basis of a...

    Cockapoo: Fishing friend or foe

    There's a certain irony to your post Paul as, a couple of hours earlier that day, there was a 40lb plus salmon landed from the Royalty! :D

    Fish killer - a surprising culprit, you say?

    Like rabbits, rats are exempt from the hunting with dogs legislation.

    Calling all rollers, trundlers and meat bundlers

    Back,when I was a kid and there was only one set of Pipes across the Royalty, if no one was around we used to free line off the attached walkway, flicking the meat upstream beneath us and then batting the pin back as the meat sunk naturally down and then playing line out as the meat passed...
