  11. Maybe if you gave Ian,the guy at Larkwood a ring beforehand Butch,informed him of your intention,just to get permission?After all,you are doing him a favour actually,think how much several dozen trout eat per week,make sure you include points like that in your opening spiel to him Good luck wherever you get permission to fish and please keep us posted,always good to read fishing reports
  12.

You can pick up a bubble-float and starlight for a couple of quid Butch,pop into your local tackle shop,they will fix you up,I threw a tin of sweetcorn into a lake last night just to see the reaction,within a few minutes the water was boiling in front of us I wouldnt use it as bait though,but I could imagine it would be very,very effective if you want to give it a try
