Hello everybody
My name is Chris, I’m just about to qualify for an OAP discounted rod licence and I enjoy fishing small streams and ponds. I started fishing when I was eight years old. Many of the streams I used to fish are now only shadows of their former selves but I am still drawn back to them.
Thanks
Chris

Welcome from just over the border in Nottingham - used to live in Sutton on Trent, and regularly used to visit Coleby and Navenby for a drink.

Hello and welcome Chris.
Small stream fishing is the finest fishing, in my opinion.

A hearty welcome, Sir.
