Every now and then we get a tale of a big one that got away (mine was a 4lb Rainbow that escaped from the net - and I had a witness)....

Yes, another musical gem, and there certainly seem to have been plenty of Browns in the Catch Returns recently. That might be due to a...

What a lovely tranquil spot for a day's fishing! This was the scene on Beat 3c a few days ago, and I had a very pleasant few hours...

If you want to help Nigel find it, or even do something more useful on the river, now's your chance. We have a Work Party coming up this...

No, I didn't really think this was a trout, but apparently it did. It grabbed a Gold-head Damsel nymph, and failed to bite through the...

Since the river was at a very nice level today (31cm) I decided to revisit Trottenden (Beat 2a) in the hope of just a little bit of dry...

Apologies to those who are very familiar with this pest (no, not me), but in case you're new to the river and haven't encountered it...

It might have been the good weather, or Andrew's home-made sausage rolls, or Nigel's teas and coffees, or even the choc-chip cookies, but...

You've missed the last Fly-Tying evening of its first season, so you'll either have to do it yourself, or just buy them, and go fishing...

Pink - It's my new Obsession. Well not really, that's just a line from the excellent Aerosmith song of that name. There is a lot to be...

Having desperately anticipated the 3rd of April to get down on the river, there are a lot of frustrated members sitting at home tying a...

Well, yes, it is another blog post hot on the heels of the last one, and yet another map with blobs on, but more to the point, it's...

In anticipation of the new season (April 3rd) we've prepared some new guidance, particularly aimed at new members, but also those who...

Never heard of these? They're my speciality I have to say. It's not that they don't work, though that's entirely possible - I won't know...

I am pleased to announce that we have now added extra functionality to enhance your enjoyment of browsing the blog. It's now possible to...

Congratulations to Henry for proving once and for all that there really are Barbel in our section of the Teise, and big ones at that....

To celebrate the delightful drizzly dull Spring morning, a dozen brave souls assembled at Trottenden today for another Work Party to...

I'm sure you're less than delighted to see the rain back again after a welcome respite, when the river level was once again back in the...

My idea of Winter Fishing is a lot like Summer Fishing really, but a lot colder. Some of our members use the opportunity to Coarse fish,...

It seems that some people would rather stay at home in front of the TV, go shopping, or even birdwatching, rather than stand all day in a...
