Re: Canal fishing towards Fazley and Tamworth

fished it a few times last year on the Drayton Manor swing bridge section and park at the swing bridge, had mainly perch and roach but found it OK both times.

Re: Vintage Fishing Tackle

Happy to see other people using vintage tackle, I've been mainly fly fishing for the last thirty or so years and decided to start coarse fishing again a couple of years back. I also bought an Edgar Sealey blue match from a boot sale (got three now) just for trotting with an old ABU 506 that I've had for years and really enjoy it. I also acquired a couple of glass rods from the sixties and a wicker creel that I use on canals and it's surprising how many people stop for a chat about the old tackle, the only problem is it's turning into a bit of an obsession and hardly use my moder n tackle now.

Re: Trotting

Trotting

After many years fishing have just found trotting with a centrepin and really got addicted, have had many enjoyable if not too productive afternoons (still learning the centrepin and getting brilliant at undoing tangles LOL) but would appreciate any information on easier access venues as getting down the banks is fairly easy it's getting back up again that's the problem .
