AN Fish- in River Test

[Anderoo]

Ah.

 

<hums> Brave Sir Robin ran away...

 

Thank you, Anderoo!

 

No problem old boy, all I ask in exchange is that you don't laugh at me trying to fly fish from under a brolly

[Andrew Burgess]

I'll push one of the Burgesses into the river and steal his.

 

hmmmm...............both of us are big and heavy and very little chance of you pushing either one of us into the water! But you can try but I wouldn't advise it!

I think a couple of pints was plenty for me last time. Water's going to be cold, too, I reckon.

Not just the water Steve! I reckon you're right though, probably no need to feed too much.

 

If I forget my flask of hot tea I'm driving back to Oxford to get it.

[Steve Walker]

"Flask" singular? Surely some mistake?

 

I suppose there may be kelly kettle tea to be had.

[Dick Dastardly]

Thanks guys. I'll bring half a gallon of red maggots, and if the fish are only after whites I'll push one of the Burgesses into the river and steal his.

 

But the real bitch Mike is after all that effort we will only have red with us anyway!!

[Stretpegger]

My bait menu consists of

 

2 pints of bronze with a sprinkling of reds

half a pint of casters

small tin of corn

small bag of liquidised bread and some microwave zapped slices for hookbaits

 

not to mention a large slice of luck and boundless optimism.

How was it, Chris?

 

I didn't go - having been made redundant back in the summer - this fell in the 1st week of my new job so thought it prudent to cry off...

Quite right, CP. Very best wishes in your new job!
