A nice story about your start into the fishing lark ,dispite the gunk and the wellie full of water you went again and again and enjoyed it ,all thanks to your dad ,thank goodness for our dads .
Thats a nice story Karen and it brings back a lot of memories of my Dad because he was the one who first took me fishing and sowed the seeds nearly 60 years ago. A pastime that has stood the test of time for you just as has for me, may you enjoy it for as long as I have.
