  1. Went to harvest some sloes with father in law yesterday. Got 2 litres of sloe gin fermenting nicely in the garage. Also found a cracking spot for some rough shooting later in the year. Nice walk out Cheers Aled
  2. I fish the Welsh Rivers (Tywi, Teifi, Taff etc). A good book to read is Hugh Falkus book on Salmon Fishing its got a good section on Worm fishing in there. Tight Lines Aled
  3. The red one makes lovely (oh yes lovely.....) bodies for buzzer imitiation flies. Also handy for carrying salmon back home with on the very rare occasions i catch one! Cheers Aled
  4. Foxhunter i love days like that. Nice one Cheers Aled
  5. Good old fashioned lob worms from the veg patch, in a bunch fished bouncing along the bottom. If you like spinning my personnal favourite is a mepp size 3 or 4 bronze anglia longue Fly's any type of shrimp pattern or a thunder and lightning. But what you really need is loads of self confidence that what you are doing is right, and salmon in your stretch of the river. Tight Lines Aled
  6. I also thoroughly enjoyed his programmes, but like nelson i always thought "sooner or later". Its sad news guys. Cheers Aled

    Most hideous lager

    Whats worth noting is that sometimes even cheaper lager tastes OK. The tescoes home brand Dutch Lager (the one up from the blue n red band) is actually quite tidy when served chilled! Anyway Skol not really my favourite pint, can't stomcah special brew, but rather partial to Buckleys Brains IPA Cheers Al

    Shed

    Havent got a shed per say but back half of the garage is mine: Usuall outdoor stuff, camo jacket, boots, waders, rods, lamps, plus fly tying bench, small fridge for beer and a cheap argos radio to listen to sport....nice place to relax away from the missus. Cheers Al
  9. The best fly in the entire world is in my opinion the one in which you've got self confidence in. Its better to fish the "wrong" fly well than to fish the "right" fly badly. All the flies put n here though are good fly's Tight Lines Al
  10. Nice one David Thought u been quiet FH. Cheers Al

  13. Fished all night for sea trout on Monday. Caught two rather stale fish of about 1.5lb returned both as they were not at their best. Caught one at dusk and the other at dawn. Not a touch in between. Still nice to be out. Tight Lines Aled
  14. It was when i finished education and started work i suddenly realised it was possible to be happy!!! Cheers Al
  15. Nice fish, they will taste superb out of the sea like that. I had a 2pounder over the weekend. Fish starting to colour so i put it back. Tight Lines Al
  16. I have not tried it on a BBQ Pennymeadow looks good , will have a go as soon as i catch something, going away to fish this weekend for 3 days. Lovely. Tight Lines Aled
  17. Smaller sea trout and trout fried in butter n bacon fat. Larger fish, wrapped in foil with butter lemon juice salt n pepper. Tight Lines Aled
  18. Two crackers there mate Well done, can't wait for next week to get back out amongst the sea trout again. Gotta work this weekend. Tight Lines Aled
  19. Matty you could do worse than join a local rugby club. The pre season training which starts around 2nd week of July is usually a big help. Its what i did when i left school. Got fitter and bigger surprisingly quickly. Cheers Al
  20. Hi moocher I love my fishing (27years) sea trout fishing at night being my first love (see sea trout page on this forum) its worth noting that according to last weeks shooting times 84% of people who shoot also fish. Tigt Lines Aled
  21. Don't know if there is a lot of tongue in cheek comment going on here with this BUT but the person whose ferreting posts i've enjoyed most has been Keeps. Great pics enjoyable commentary and somebody who has had what (it appears to me) a good and enjoyable year. Cheers Al
  22. Crikey foxhunter, you ain't half having a good season Cheers Al
  23. Cheers Guys I wish it would stop raining here for a bit, i really need to get out and do some night fishing but she's too high and too brown at present.
