Totally agree, an excellent and very well written article.
Living not far from Borobridge, I can fully endorse your picture of life inside the local hostelrys. Great fishing around that area with most of the Yorkshire spate rivers being with spitting disstance.
I also share your respect for Sean and his writings on how to approach barbel fishing in the Yorks rivers. I have in fact arranged to have adays fishing with Sean in the very near future, my contributionshall be to demonstarte the art of casting into trees and bushes! In all honesty, Sean may well give up angling and take up golf after this session!/forum/smilies/big_smile_smiley.gif
Once again, a lovley artical Andy.
