    Thanks mate, might take a walk down later, I know there’s some kids that fish the river can’t really do more than educate them on closed season, it’s the adults who know the rules that annoy me

    Must say I have to agree, having never fished grimshaws I was really intimidated by all the marker floats and distance sticks. Is it all necessary on what is effectively a pond? If you can’t cast 40 yards without the aid of sticks you probably shouldn’t be fishing. Also I drive past every day on the way to work and have seen people there for 2 weeks, with tv aerials and solar panels on their bivvys, surely you should be on red house with that kind of technology. The art of fishing is slowly dying and the age of sitting in a bivvy behind 3 rods for weeks on end is being born. It’s hardly surprising people can’t catch on there the carp will most likely still be eating last years thousands of kilos of boilies that haven’t broke down yet!
