Glassy Junction in south road southall,EVERYONE wears a turban,was the first pub in the UK to accept indian rupees as payment for alcohol

What would have been more impressive from a lurchermans point of view would have been a fallow,roe,and muntie in the same day,now THAT would be impressive
-
I think more guys will have knocked over a roe,hare,and fox in a nights lamping than will have taken a salmon,wild brown,and a rainbow in a day

From what I remember of the place you would have gotten change of a guinea-pig as well.Anything you wanted you could get there,just had to ask around

John Voight and Jennifer Lopez are behind you

Excellent result Aled I am going to attempt it fairly soon,salmon,brown,and either a sea or rainbow.In the past many times I have taken sea-trout and salmon in the same day,or browns and rainbows I deffinately want a salmon in the trio,the water I have been invited on is £100+ a day I dont intend to fish for the full 24 hours so will leave a pro-rata payment Spinning-rods on a fly-only Irish Tsk,tsk

Thats a BIG grass-snake,3 foot?Theres loads of them around here but never seen one that size

I was wondering last night if anyone had ever done a McNab on game fish?By definition a McNab is historically poached I guess,but lets not bother ourselves with the pedantics here,anyone ever had a game-fish McNab by fair means or foul?Brown,rainbow,and sea?Or Maybe salmon,sea,and brown?I am just curious,but for arguments sake lets not include grayling in the equation,for no other reason except that I dont fish for them,so,anyone taken a McNab?

Andy Capp country Flat-caps are de-riguer,traditional for old boys up there,the pub should be boycotted

Blackwater I guess it'll get plenty of use then.

To be honest Steve we were going to knock it on the head(not the fish)pretty soon as we have our collective eyes on something and somewhere else,but Lees speech about stocking densities,and environmentally approved guidelines made me realise that fish,yes FISH have rights too!Most guys on here probably see them as something they have with chips,or view them as little gold things that swim around in a tank in the corner of the living room and keep the kids amused,but fish have got feelings too mate,imagine sharing your house with 50 other blokes(your not polish are you?).So what I am actually d

Haswell plough?Used to go there when I was a kid,once saw a guy swap a kestrel for 5 ferrets,great place,loads of off-the-wall characters,its a livestock auction mate,well worth a visit,always seems to draw larger-than-life characters hanging around outside

Blaire witch type stuff
-
Very good pics mate,what do you guesstimate the length was?
-
Its just a little light-hearted ribaldry and joshing between Lee and myself Malt,though I am nonplussed as to Lees steadfast avoidance at providing me with the location of his fishery As for the fish,its my intention on several of these lakes to bring the population density down to the environment agency recommended guidelines,trust me,I wont rest till its done
-
I used to live withing a few hundred yards of what was then one of the best sea-trout rivers in England,I actually phoned a friend(nope,wasnt a contestant on a Chris Tarrant show)yesterday who still lives in the same village,and he laughed and told me the fish were starting to run
-
Hand-graded trout?Stitched at the seams and labelled along the side F**king hell,you have sold me on them,when do I get an invite?Might even pay more than a quid As for trout being easy to catch on Bait Lee,I am up for a match anytime you are Good luck with the wrecking,havent done it for years but I used to enjoy going out of Whitby and tynemouth Get some decent pics

I think I know the midification your talking about mate How much do 50LB live carp fetch
-
My wifes an Icthyologist Lee,she never turns down a fish,part seal part otter I guess,with a little beaver somewhere Stocking densities in some waters are f***ing ridiculous mate,the lake we fished on friday stocks with 50,000 fish a year and the amount of abnormalities we have noticed in fish on some waters is scary,JOE caught a beauty of a fish on friday,nice solid 5'lber except it only had half a tail?What do I do at work mate?As little as f***ing possible my work colleagues will tell you
-
That explains it then,the wife always says I am infantile in my rationale Ok then,forget sweetcorn-only,substitute that for bait-only,but fluff-chuckers often have a holier-than-thou attitude,lots of them in this area fish at stocked fisheries because they have no basic field or bushcraft,wading out in your Simms G4's wearing your William-J vest and lashing the waters with your Orvis Zero isnt a substitute for water-craft mate,some fisheries I have visited look like Roker pier after a mackerel-fest discarded line and rubbish,and I havent ONCE fished and not caught fish trailing line or carry

She brought me the catalogue back mate,paper-affair,they must have an online website though

Ethics?next to Kent?No mate,we dont fish in ethics Like I said LG,normally a bona-fide dry-fly fluff chucker myself,but fridays little jaunt with the sweetcorn got me thinking,why is it that there are fly-only fisheries?Whats so special about them mate?Why cant we have sweetcorn only fisheries?And as for mags like "Fly-fishing" why cant we have mags like "Sweetcorn and niblet"?Thinking of it sweetcorns a lot more versatile than flies,I remember once fishing with joe and snagging my last Ummmm,Mayfly-nymph,lost it on some bushes so my day looked to be over,anyway,popped into the bushes for a N

He does look like Mohammad Sidique Khan's twin brother

Ok,so heres the score,I have had a few detractors lately,namely LG who at one time I figured to be an online troll,but now I am wondering whether "he" is actually a "she" named Charlene,an ex-girlfriend with a penchant for bukkake,but as I am a tea-spoon a day man,I was never able to fully satisfy her in the way she wanted and she drifted away to end up managing an knitwear shop in preston All criticism levelled at me have concerned "Unsporting" fishing methods,so its time for the fightback to commence,I am actually considering leading a camapign against that scourge of the trouting world,t
