An Update.....Redmire Success


Well the trip to Redmire Pool was a flying success. All the lads caught fish, 21 between us actually and the weather was amazing! There were five twenties caught including both commons and mirrors and, as expected, we all got along like a house on fire. The report being worked on but will take a while longer to get finished, so many pictures to sort and lots of words so it’s taking much longer than expected.
This weekend I have been invited to the Colne Valley pits for a weekend social, perhaps my last chance for a jolly before the baby comes so looking forward to this one. I will be given a tour of the pits including the mighty Savay so hope to have some nice pictures for you.
Then I feel I’ll be doing more writing that actually fishing, time will be of the essence and as the adventures become fewer the pen will get busier and some of those projects I’ve started can finally be finished. I have lots of ideas but have found little spare time to actually carry them through, so in between feeds, rocking and walks I can knuckle down and start to produce a few pieces I’ve been threatening to for a while.
Here are a couple of pictures of the trip last week as a little teaser….kind of sneak preview for blog followers.

  1. If that's the teaser I can't wait for the full tale.

  2. I started following your blog a couple of months ago. It's always nice to see someone fishing in a way they like instead of just doing what everyone think's they should do. I'm looking forward to the story about this trip. and maybe, just maybe... I'll try to get to the place next year.

  3. Thanks guys....

    That's the way forward Kevin, fish on your own terms and you'll always come out smelling of roses. The full report is nearing completion, just waiting for someone to come back to me reference publicising. If it's a no go I'll post it up here....

  5. Thanks fellas....

    Unfortuately this session report will have to wait a little while before it's posted. Something exciting could be in the wings that I'll let you know about nearer the time, but if it doesn't surface then it'll go straight up on here regardless.

    In the meantime, I had a great weekend in the Colne Valley this weekend. Report to come shortly.....
