Fishing.

This mostly going to be a fishing blog.
Some of you may know that in recent years I've been specialising in barbel fishing although I've fished for them for nearly thirty years now.I had a spell when I purely fished for carp but the call of running water was too strong.Since I settled up north I've enjoyed many happy days and nights on the beautiful stretches up here,mostly on the Swale and the Trent and more recently the Dove.I've also had a few sessions on the Don (it's a lot nearer!)and even had a double out of it.
When I first moved up here I didn't have a clue where to fish, a mate suggested I joined the Barbel Society.So glad I did as it's opened up so much for me and I've met some great blokes along the way.
I don't get as much time on the bank as I'd like(like most of us I s'pose)due to work and my temperemental campervan so I tend to go for at least one night when I get the chance.

Anyway,I'll post a bit more when I know someone's reading!
