The 2023 Season is not far away!

The new season is not far away now?

If you are anything like me then the prospect of April 1st and the start of the new fishing season fills you with huge excitement but also anxiety in case the season is a repeat of last years!

Lets hope that we get some water April, May and June just to keep the river fresh.

So it's soon time to dust off the rods and reels, sort out the mess of flies you left last season (if you fished that is) and check those waders for leaks?

Tight lines for 23! Here's one from 2015!
