Good evening Gents,
I had a nice Friday at work (Tree Officer... the posh word Arboricultural, think I got the spelling right!) and managed to find three rod rest shaped sticks growing in the same woodland... Ash ( with the bark trimmed off) Cherry, on the left and Hazel on the right.
I lit my fire, poured out a beer and enjoyed just looking at them. It has been one strange week!

Ps I like a wide fork so it’s easy to drop the rod in. Purely personal.

The close season is an important and interesting time for the Angler who set out to catch big fish. It is a timely opportunity for him to make new tackle or renovate old. There are no end of jobs to do, apart from those horrible things called Gardens!

Great rests Sir.

Splendid, Sir.
