Newt, If you look at the profiles of Colin and the Rabbit under *topics started* you will see that it says they both started the topic "BAA Waters" - Thats all it was, I didn't really think they were the same person.

Ah so ayjay. Got it now.

 

We have had the, "well, gonna get me 5 accounts and talk to meself on the forum", thing in the past and I thought that was what you meant.

I was only saying what I saw on my computer Colin, doesn't matter one iota to me who started what topic, it was just something I noticed.

 

Have a look in your profile under *topics started* here's a screenshot of what I get when I look at yours :-

As a point of intrest, I have a book by Ray Mumford ' Match Fishing : Step By Step'. I've never met the guy , but He looks the part. Very helpful book as well.

Was it Ray Mumford who was known as the bionic bleaker? In the days when I used to fish a lot of matches I remember buying a video about whip fishing by him on the canal using squats & pinkies; a great match angler.

That's him BB, a very good angler for most species, not just speed fishing.

 

I met him a couple of times in the 70s, and, err, I'll just say we didn't get on very well!!
