I guess we all have a few. As a member of a large club with hundreds of waters I try and fail usually to go somewhere different heading on auto pilot to the ones I like, feel comfortable at and am familiar with .This morning I felt intrepid and tried a new water which I had visited once but not fished.

The blurb indicated specimen fish of all varieties. Well the pool is in deep woodland off single track unmade roads and not easy to find. I should have turned back but pressed on. The place is , well downright spooky. If I was transported there and without the noise of aircraft at Manchester Airport I could well believe I was in the Everglades in Florida, or Bayou Teche( James Lee Burke fans will know this) in Louisiana or in the back of beyond in Tennessee . It has a feel of Deliverance or Southern Comfort and it's a disconcerting one.

It looks like it should offer good fishing and maybe it does but I won't be back to find out.
