Yes indeed, keep it coming, this is turning into a great read, and everybody loves a good anecdote! Neil, as I said earlier we're going for a dry run and we're also bringing along a mate of mine that's fished the river many times before. Your paths might have even crossed at some point, Dave...

There's lots of good info and advice in this thread guys, thank you all very much for your help. It's really a joy to come here and talk to knowledgeable people who are prepared to pass on their knowledge instead of keeping it a closely guarded secret, and for that, once again, I thank you all...

Done. Yet another piece of the fast disappearing flood plain and water meadow under threat. It's not all about the money!

Joe, accommodation costs really aren't an issue, when you get to this stage of life I'm going for all the comfort whilst fishing that I didn't have while the kids were growing up and the mortgage bell doled mournfully every month! We've decided that the best course of action is to ring Woody's...

OK, Graham, I'll check all that out. As far as 4x4's go, after a succession of Disco's, old Land Cruisers and a few fourtraks, I'm now right at the bottom of the list with a freelander. It does have the BMW engine, which is a bonus, and it can cope with all the tracks and dodgy angles on my...

OK, gentlemen, that's food and entertainment sorted, I wonder, could I slip a wee bit of fishing in as well...

Hi, Neil, Thanks for the prompt reply. I'll Investigate your suggestion and get back to you. Your offer of escort duty, are you a guide? Cheers, Bob

Good afternoon, All, Hopefully, this is the right place for my question, if not, mods please feel free to move it! Myself and my fishing partner of more years and waters than any mere mortal would care to remember have decided that this is the year that we visit the Wye. I've mailed...
