Happy New Year to all you fellow danglers. I hope we all have a much better 2021 and stay safe and well. My new year's resolution is to try and get out on at least 5% of the fishing trips that DD seems to manage

Absolute legend

Laporte not on the bench, but no mention of injury!

What an odd season. After 12 games, won exactly the same number of games as Palace and Newcastle, yet still not out of the title race!

My mum passed away on Tuesday. I keep beating myself up about it, but not shed a single tear yet. Comfort myself in that's just my genes/that's the way she brought me up. Amazing how differently we are all made.

Emotions running high in here tonight. Just to add fuel to the fire. Just my personal view... Not sure it is anything to do with the manager or the effort of players. More comparing overall quality of what we have today versus the "last decade". Sat down ready for the start today and looking...

Seems to be a common theme. Not a sniff from my session on the Nene on Tuesday. Though to be fair, a 50g feeder would not hold bottom properly, even when fishing "Trent style", and every cast was immediately met with solid weed.

Out for the first time in months and months in the morning. Session on the Nene in Peterborough. Just back from balling in 30 balls between the two of us. Hopefully the bream are there, and fingers crossed a 50g feeder is enough to hold. Been in flood recently, but been watching it, and has been...

Get it right please. Mortimer, Whitehouse and Newman.

Supposed to be working from home today, but spending all my time sharing Rick's (and others) posted tweets with my bitter family. Oh what a day this is!

Embarrassingly Inbetweeners 2 last night. Not as funny as the original, but was in need of a laugh prior to my concern for this morning's decision. Needn't of bothered :-)

LOL. 20lb Trent barbel coming up, and it will be your fault! :-)

And then a kebab a little later! Good luck mate. That level of effort deserves a result.

Enjoy your brew mate and stay warm. Ask the GF for a 'special cuddle', and then tell her you are both up at 04.00 to try again :-)

How did it go Paul? Sooo fooking jealous. Stuck inside listening to the rain lash against the window, watching Arse V Leicester.

Stop it! Getting a lump in my throat just reading. Love your quotes surrounding little thief and Olympic breakfasts. Have to read it twice then PMSL. I'm lucky my lad is 21 and lives locally with his mum. He's not much into his fishing but took him to a carp pond when we went away for a weekend...

That was like reading a lovely short Mr Crabtree story. Really enjoyable. PMSL at 'early evening BBQ' and 'when James got back from the kebab shop' though. It's a wonder you have time to fish, must be always eating :-)

VAR. What a joke. Hauled over, ran over his arm/hand. 10 seconds before the goal went in and 20/30 yards from goal. Some really strong individual performances tonight. Off to text my sister.

Thanks DD. I am incredibly lucky, in that the tributary I fish is 10 minutes from home, does not hold huge amounts of barbel, but most are large. It was quite quiet for many many years, but is now becoming very popular. Whilst I love to see as many people fishing as possible, it is a little...

Yes, absolutely made up thanks. Didn't get a photo unfortunately as never took my camera as wanted to keep light roving for miles. Left phone in glove box as I only have a works android phone and it never stops. No way I am answering a Google Hangout when I am in the wilderness :-) Now thinking...
