A few hours in the evening down the Don with my mate Paul (25/06/04).
One of the rods bust early on, so we had to take turns. We managed 2 Barbel and 1 Chub each, but one of my Barbel was only a 1lb stockie. |

The river was still pushing through after a flood. |

Back on the Wharfe (22/06/04) and another pb. Had 4 in total, and lost 2 good un's. All on the float, from a swim you can walk across in waders! |

I've put a new section in for Fish Types.
For those of you out there who aren't fishermen (or fisherwomen), having a look at these photos might explain one reason why fisherman like fishing. |
