New Member from Dorset
Hi All.
Just joined from sunny Portland in Dorset. Not a lot of coarse fishing options locally but would love to hear from other local members with a view to fishing together. I grew up fishing Fairham Brook in Bunny Nottinghamshire and still love fishing the small rivers and streams with simple methods.
All the best.

A hearty welcome, Sir.
