Chatting away in my local tackle shop this evening, talking about the end of the river season and plans for the new.
I mentioned "our" day on the Lower Itchen back in March and my mental note to try it again late next season.
"Far too bluddy expensive, not worth the money" came the response from one guy.
"The fishing was good and the company and conversation were free" was my reply.
"Can't afford it" said he.
This from a guy I regularly see sat behind two rods at Gold Valley (?15) and often night fishes it (?25 - 24 hours).
I've got no problems with that, I fish GV a lot, but he just couldn't be convinced of the value of something different!
