I know it sounds daft, but I didnt know waht a commercial fishery was until a couple of years ago. I hadnt bought any of the angling press for years and totally missed all this, and just went where i always had, rivers, ressiies and canals. I started buying the AT when I started working away aq couple of years ago.
I had one attempt at Border Fishery in Crewe, paid about a fiver for my ticket, after a couple of hours at what was meant to be an all day sesssion, I packed up. The reason? I was bored!! Every cast, whatever i did, i caught exactly the same fish,. To me thats not fun and not what i love fishing for.
Quality fishing, to me, is finding the fish, and fishing well for them. I'd rather blank and learn something than catch like that again.
