Still little or no change in habits for some. Apparently a town near me was just as busy as normal according to a local shop keeper (via email).
Some can't seem to work out how the virus keeps spreading and people keep dying, yet still there's pressure to go fishing, mix as normal etc.

I agree work is more important but so is my mental health.I have stuck to every guideline going and will continue to do so to keep myself and family safe.I just think fishing could be allowed still

Totally agree if done sensibly then yes. You like me get to go to work see people etc. My mrs is stuck at home with 4 kids and soon be pulling her hair out, so if I was to say I need to go fishing for my mental health you might find me divorced on plenty of fish 🤣

Think I may just retire to a canal boat so no fishing restrictions, just need to find the best location to live on one.

Brilliant mate, happy times and memories

Took my daughter on a few sessions, never stuck with it sadly, to be fair, who cares, least I tried. Must be nice if you can get your kids to go with you though, best company in the world
