I see many women fishing on the rivers and lakes in Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire, this probably says something about the Scots attitude to women lol

 

I must admit that I have never seen a woman fishing alone, always with a male companion!

I have never met another woman fishing alone as I do I have met the odd one or two fsihing with their husbands.

 

I was really pleased last year and the year before as I had some girls on my junior barbel fish in.

 

They don't know what they are missing out on, all the peace and quiet away from the kids

I see a few on popular marks, hardly surprising they don't show up on some of the lonely stretches of beach.

Fished alongside many on the shore but very rarely on a boat, they'r out there.

I've seen a few while on rare fly fishing jaunts, but in 20 years of coarse fishing in Scotland i have seen only 1 female angler.

I was only joking mate

 

Now I come to think about it I have seen a couple of ladies fishing on their own at the fly fishing only loch at Colmonell in Ayrshire

 

Whilst out walking my dog I recently spotted a couple in the distance walking along the bank of the tidal river Trent along way from a road etc so I decided to be nosey and see what the attraction of such a long walk was and they turned out to be a old couple 70+, when I found them they were stood knee deep in mud and the old guy had one of the largest rucsacs that I have ever seen, it would not have looked out of place on someone in the SAS on manouvers

 

They told me that they had been fishing this particular spot for over 50 years and they just liked the peace and quiet.

I work with women and I live with one - I go fishing to get away!
