[Paul Boote]

Now, let me think back...

The last time I did that - often and sometimes highly informatively - I was chased about the rivers of the Home Counties and the Internet by a bunch of -

[Mark Anderson]

Hi men ,

Chased around your river ???, bit mad . No need to chase on the Ouse near me , as all knew about Vauxhalls , all knew about MK , all knew about Adams Mill ???? , so the location of fish of record proposions was not a problem ! .

Hatter

 

[Mark Anderson]

Hi men,

For someone who has been physically chased around the home counties , why would you put up a post like this then on the barbel talk site ?, as some people may need an explanation of how this relates to barbel angling .

Hatter

 

[Paul Boote]

Quite cheers me up at 8.20 on a foggy morning to see the desperation of some here...
