The Traditional Fisherman's Forum

I don't know about you but I start to panic at this time of year. With March around the corner and so many river ambitions it like to realise! Today I might just be able to visit the river bank for a few hours (after some plastering) but it's the deciding where to go, what to fish for and how to fish for them??? With another blanket of snow this morning I feel there's probably only one fish that will oblige. Chevin on bread flake it is then!

Sounds like a plan - good luck

My advice is to go fishing while you can, as well as March approaching we just dont know whats round the corner.
The plaster can wait, but I bet Chevin is after his toast!

Good luck sir.

During the winter period I am always chopping and changing plans, the river Severn is up and down like a fiddlers elbow in which case i go down the canal only to find it frozen over. Nowadays the winters are cold and wet with a chill that permeates the bones.

You're absolutely right, now to convince the wife!
