The Years been real eye opener for me, I’ve moved over to the darker side of fishing after years of “martyr angling” highlights were the knotless knot and plastic maggot. I continued to catch a string of 3lb plus size large crucians, and some memorable tench late in to the year. I think I learnt more this year about fish behavior than I have for a very long time. One odd rather quirky kink I developed was when crucian fishing, targeting larger fish, I would only catch or get bites when I wasn’t holding the rod, maybe just coincidence I don’t know, yogurt pot telephone perhaps…
Lows, falling in, hasn’t happened in 30 years of fishing, nearly hung myself in the process, a Cotswold Aquarius stalking bucket actually saved me, and my camera, was quite horrific really, a desolate boat marina on a rainy day, a slippery moss covered little pier that unknowingly wasn’t tethered, I hoped on and Whoooosh…
How about your 2009?
