There are two obvious and regular times when I tend to reflect on my recent fishing, the end of the year and the end of the season.
To that effect I have to say that I’ve had a fantastic last six months and some great fish, notably I’ve taken far more barbel on the float than the tip for the first season ever which has been an aim of mine for the last two or three seasons and has finally come to fruition.
Individual fish?
It’s hard to say, despite my love of and concentrated efforts in pursuit of big perch I think the 2lb 3oz roach would have to be my pick of the crop, a very special fish indeed for me.
On the calamity side of things a summer dunking springs to mind when I found myself taking a step off of an overgrown, vertical drop to find myself lay on my side and submerged in the river a split second later!
But without a doubt the highlights and most treasured memories of the year are the great people I’ve met and the friendships forged, there’s nothing quite like putting faces to names and I hope that it continues for a very long time to come.
So, what stands out as particularly memorable for you over the last year?
