Diary of an average angler

Who favours traditional methods & baits

fisherman

This diary dates back to a holiday in 2003 when I think the urge to get back into fishing took off. From around 2007 the trips became more frequent with 2010/11 probably being the peak of activity.
Things again pick up in 2020 - a sort of rebirth!

Merry Christmas

And a review of 2023

You can view the video on this page or open YouTube by clicking the YouTube icon above.

It was a late start to the year after a back operation in February and I didn't manage to do as much river fishing as I would have liked. And unfortunately I didn't have great success when I did manage to get to the rivers. But a few decent fish came my way before a worsening problem with my left hip grounded me. This review includes a clips from some of my trips.

I shall be seeking medical advice for the hip although it is looking very much as if I shall need a hip replacement. I had my right hip replaced in 2021 at which time the consultant advised me that the left hip was also worn, and it seems that it has now reached the point where surgery may be required.
