Fishing in Britain 24/7

Find the earnest angler.

He has a good bend in the rod. Probably a barbel angler.

I like the urban angling scene sometimes. Mountains can be so boring

At least the River Don never caught fire, did it?

The Don and the Dearne were seriously polluted when I was younger. However, in the higher reaches trout, grayling, and some coarse fish were unaffected and once the water quality improved these stocks spread downstream and re-stocked the lower lengths. That bit of the Don where I filmed is in the middle of an industrial estate. Just out of camera shot is a bridge connecting two factories and fork lifts go over all day and night. Despite that I could leave my place of work on Niagara Rd, drive to that length, catch three or four trout on the fly and be back at work within my allocated 45 minute lunch break.

The factory is the Trebor Bassets place. You can catch Allsorts there (I'll get my coat)

Hah! No one ever checked the CCTV, right?

Just because I fished wet fly doesn't mean that I can't be trusted.
