Back Home and time to reflect

Back home and time to look back over a couple of most enjoyable weeks away, the first 2 days were spent in the company of 24 anglers from essex who join me every year for a couple of days on the river Severn. I look forward all year to their visit, because for me it is very rewarding and a lot of fun.


This year with the severn not in the best of form it was always going to be hard work, but I managed to put a few of them on Barbel and plenty were landed over the 2 days.
