Re: Fishing

I dug my rod out last month and started fishing again At the moment, I have only tried the canal at Clayton (shallow and overgrown with weeds but pulled out a decent size bream) Carnforth, (Couldn't stop pulling out small perch) and Foulridge (must have picked a bad time of the day - or the fish were told I was coming)

I am trying out Blackburn tonight and Willow is tagging along She promises to be quiet

Re: Fishing

I fish all over the place locally, but tend to stick to a place at Charnock Richard called German Lane that's stacked out with Carp and Tench (the obvious giveaway in my signiture name!!)

I was a member of Hyndburn & Blackburn A.A. up until a few years ago, but gave up membership due to various demands upon my time!!! From what I've heard,they've (H & B A.A.) lost a fair few waters. Anyone on here a member ????

The last time I fished Kearns Allens (which was some 3 years or so ago) the bottom lodge seemed to fish better and was quite popular. Don't know if that's still the case tho!!

What's that bit like down round the back of Express Gifts?

Up near Blackburn Asda was a bit of a non-event.
