Yes, there were loads in the Thames around there, known to my group of fishing mates as snotties. I've never caught them anywhere else.

Re: Crow quill Avons….
That lovely Gent Sussex Micky has sent me a set of crow quill Avons for Wally gonks, now all I need to do is hold my end of the bargain and post a picture of a good sized Gonk against one of them.
I hope to use one on the Jolly on Saturday if the river calms down a bit

The float was spot on for the river and got me a few
