Good read that, every time I read a Pool article I drift off and imagine myself in the storytellers shoes, very enjoyable and certainly whets the apetite for the forthcoming season.

I'd love to Pete but I don't have enough big fish under my belt or any anecdotal stories to tell.

[I'm crap at fishing and a boring b*****d face]

Although with my latest venue I hope to have something to write about in the coming months/years.

[fingers crossed face]

Great read Lee, read it last night and was thinking about the chance of landing on a similar water in my neck of the woods all day today. Bring on the first frost.

Couldn't agree with you more Dave. I have dedicated my book to his memory and there is a chapter in it written by his dad Ernie.
