[Geof]

Anyone been out on the Goyt this year?Had a few smaall fish and 3,5lb brownie today.Anyone else?

 

[Morespiders]

No Geof, going this week ,hopefully.

 

[Geof]

I would be interested to see how it goes as don,t often see anyone on the bank.Best of luck.

 

[Ric Elwin]

I fish it at least once a week Geof, often twice.

There are loads of people coarse fishing, certainly at Otterspool and Warth Meadow.

That's a cracking Trout, did you catch it on bait?

Oh that's the next River on my list, the Goyt. How do i get to it from Oldham?

 

[Morespiders]

Yes Ric, there was one fishing at Otterspool sat in the river quivertipping,and two youths at Brabyns,they knew it was the closed season, said they were fishing for trout.With meat and bomb. wheres the E.A.at w/ends? could make some real money if they tried.Must be at least a ?200 fine no licence and fishing out of season.

 

[Geof]

Hi folks.Caught it on Greenwells spider pattern,size 16.On a DNMAC stretch.Got a pic,poor quality as fish tired and did not want to remove from water.Thumbs down to closed season fishing.

 

[Ric Elwin]

Congratulations Geof. My best Brownie on fly from the river is 1.08, but I have had a couple of Rainbows over 2lb.

Morespiders, it wasn't you I was chatting to at the Otterspool 'car park' on saturday afternoon was it?

Cheers for email Ric, i can't wait for Sat now!

I could do to get hold of some of them spider flys now. why do tackle shops not sell fly gear?

 

[Poshpaul (Angling Trust and PaSC)]

Had a walk up to Chadkirk the other day. More people fishing at Otterspool than in the open season! Mind you them new dry fly porky pig feeders seem very popular!!!! Anybody been on the Etherow above Brabyn's recently?

 

[Morespiders]

No Rik.Was he talking sensible, if he was it wasn't me. Wendy stop using Spiders immediatley, or I wont tell you where to catch a 6lb tench .Cant the E.A. be notified Rik its so blatant.No Posh Paul.
