Oh dear, not good but easy access by car I guess is the common denominator. My river fishing on the Trent only usually lasts for a couple or three hours or sometimes really spoil myself for four or five hours so I don't need to carry much at all. The heaviest item is my bait.Dave Burr wrote:Shaun - all the river anglers have descended on the Wye.
The big downside of no-one being around is that there is little to deter Otters making themselves at home. The stretch I have photographed remained the same last year until the vegetation started to die down. It just wasn't fished, a friend of mine fished it in the Autumn and had to actually very discreetly cut an area just large enough to sneak into.
