As with markg, I too can remember how accessible some parts of the Hants Avon were/are. From day tickets to fish the Royalty to stretches around Ringwood and Ibsley and even further up, you could always organise some fishing for our group who travelled down from outer London.
Even the sometimes grumpy (or was it all the time?) Colonel Crow back in the 60's would offer help to visiting anglers. Trouble was he was so loud and walked at a speed we couldn't keep up with, loaded down with gear, as we were...
Happy days................
Be nice it was always that easy- Might see a few more on rivers, they would get monitored more and take all that pressure off lake fish, it should be more evenly spread.
