Remember I told you a couple of weeks ago that well-known angler Dave Harrell had put forward an idea to run a river contest on the same lines as the very popular Fish O’Mania concept?

Once a year there is a huge auction of angling memorabilia at the Angling Auctions in Chiswick, London and you can guarantee that there will always be a few surprises.

There is no doubt that river fishing has been in decline for almost 20 years since anglers decided to concentrate on the stillwater commercials for their sport.

I return to the subject of cormorants and their predatory nature for it is not just an issue in this country but across Europe.

IT is now over 20 years ago when our farmers were told by the European Union that they were producing too much food and were told that they would have to widen their interests to lessen the risk of financial losses.

a few weeks ago I told you of a newsletter which I had reviewed from the Environment Agency.
