I like this thread as I do more of this kind of thing.

This morning's view. 25 Tench between 4 and 5lb was the result of an 8 hour session.

Show off

I bet there’s some Crucion’s under those pads!

I love the rivers, especially when it’s all over grown around you, and the smell, fishing!

I know exactly what you mean about the smell.

I can't do the glorious 16th this year as I am in France, but as soon as I am back I'll be doing at least 2 nights a week at the rivers, nobody else there.

The tackle in the photo is probably older than me, I like it

Superb Photo... I started my angling adventure on a wicker box like that. Can still feel the cuts in my legs i used to get when wearing shorts as a kid.

That’s not a very nice way to describe your fellow anglers! 🤪
