A bit fishy

[paulm]

A friend who fishes Blagdon and Chew Lakes is always asking if I want any fish, so this is for him

As a trout fisherman (occasionally these days) I absolutely love that but would have prefered just game fish.

Any fisherman would be pleased to own that pen. :itscool:

Its a set of stamps Bob. The fishing for pike now brings in as much money as for trout though and is quite big business here although I only ever fish for trout when I can be bothered to go. If you ever fancy coming down for a bit of fishing, you'd be welcome to stay here.

I used to love fishing, course and sea fishing, don't done none for years.
Not since my boys got all my tackle nicked for me, never did replace it.
I was the sort of fisherman everyone hated, much like the Pols today, what I catch ain't going back in unless it's on a hook for something bigger.
I wanna see what it tastes like, probably just as well I don't go init?

Philistine Brian. I only keep trout and the odd salmon or sea trout. Throw back any wild trout and keep only stockies for the table.

Paul
Many thanks for the offer, much appreciated.
You're a bit far away from me though and I'm not sure fishing the big reservoirs suit me, I prefer small lakes and better still rivers where I can fish dry fly.
I have the river Coquet a few minutes away which carries only brown trout and a few escaped rainbows apart from the tidal stretch, very hard fished but gets some good runs of sea trout and salmon as well.

Some years ago I worked on Malting's up in Bridlington, Grimsby and Imingham, they used to breed fish for the table in their water tanks.
I was told they were only trout but when I got the opportunity to look, they had perch and carp in there to.
Lovely clean fish no earthy taste to them, I did bag me a few on a poachers line and took em back to me digs.
Good ol days when the world was still black and white.

Another beauty Paul. You've certainly got the casting lark licked & I don't mean fly casting.
