To All BAA d’anglers in this Association,
Wishing you all Many Tight Lines and Bulging Nets in the year ahead.
Let us all hope for Less or even NO Foul Discharge from the Water Utilities into our Water Courses.
Let us all hope for Rubbish Free Bankside’s, take it home!
Read the Booked Waters and Fisheries Work Plan before you go out to a venue that :-
1) May be Booked for a Contest!!
2) May have some Scheduled Work by the Fisheries Team on it on the day that you go there?
It has been great to see the quality and variety of the fish caught and appearing in Pictures of the Week so please Contribute Feedback from your Fishing Contests or Pleasure Fishing, the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, I enjoy seeing and reading the contributions in the Forums, but most of all just,
Keep on Fishing….

Re: Wishing all d’anglers many Tight Lines and Bulging Nets for a Happy New Year - Keep on Fishing
Yes Reg, keep on fishing.
I had to drop my wife off in Swindon on Saturday, so rather than go home and return thought I would spend and hour or so using a method I had seen a chap using successfully on the SW canal.
He was using a VMC swivel hook and drop shotting with a worm. Using this method he had caught many perch and chub to 5Ib over the years.
I gave it a go, had one slight indication, but all I had to show at the end was a dry net and cold fingers. First dry net of the New Year. Will give it another go as and when. One chap was leaving after dead baiting roach for pike, but had no runs. He caught one the week before. A lad turned up with a lure to try as I left, so there must be a pike or two about.
As you say Reg, better to be out and catching nowt, than sitting at home.
Tight lines
