I was just looking back at my season which will close down in the next few weeks. Its been a good one, my first as a member at Coldingham which fished well all season, final of the national for the first time, successful trip down to Pitsford. Two blanks in 32 sessions with a rod average around 5. Its not the numbers that bother me but the stuff that sticks in my mind that I use for 'mindfulness' and to make me feel good when I'm down. The stoat bouncing along the bank, the ospreys fishing right in front of us, the large naturalised rainbow taking a shield bug in not three feet of water. Good company in a boat and meeting new folk. Most of all, the take of a fish when fishing dries - i'm not sure there is anything equivalent in course fishing -maybe fishing floating crusts for carp?
Whatever, I know I couldn't do without it, it enriches the heart, soul and mind and I thank god for it every day when so much in the world is utter shite. I bet you guys have very similar feelings.
