A small pond angling session to start the day and the one that got away
I enjoy fishing small ponds and, as anglers, we should never forget that enjoyment is the first, and most important, box that we tick.
The overwhelming majority of us aren’t fishing to please paying subscribers or angling for a magazine article assignment.
It’s not selfish, in this context, to say that we’re out and about first and foremost for ourselves.
This morning’s short woodland pool session of one hour plus, saw lots of roach and a perch on the bank.
Then there was the one that got away. I saw the big (relatively speaking, taking the venue into account) roach turn before it parted company with the hook.
I find these things though, rather than discourage me, actually motivate a return to the venue in question.
Nature watch: raven, grey heron, kingfisher, ring-necked parakeet.
Stewart i know you are a busy man but if possible can you do some fishing playlists on your YouTube….such as one for pike,maybe one for Sea,Stickleback etc etc.
I enjoy your vids and tend to have them playing in the background when i’m making pole rigs and pike traces etc so playlists would be useful.
Thanks…..Mark L
Thanks for the comments, Mark, appreciated.
I’ll look into that for the future. It’s east to create your own playlist though in the meantime.
Search YouTube for ‘word’ and add videos to a playlist.
Your reference to sticklebacks reminds me, haven’t been after those for a while.
Loved your shopping trip mishaps very funny 😂
Quite a series of events there, Alan!
The rat was the worst 🤮
I still haven’t worn the shoes yet, I will do this weekend though.
Have enjoyed the tench sessions over the summer. Watch out for those dead rats by the way 🤣
Hello, Chris. Nice one, you know the venue as well, of course.
Live ones are bad enough but entrails are worse 🤮
