Find any company that services alarm systems and they will give you as many batteries as you want, We had boxes full of them as they change the batteries in the alarms on an annual basis,

No sitting down waiting.

Spinning for trout wouldn't be very productive, if you sat down.

And trout season is through spring and summer.

Only getting back into it since last year, Gooey.

Used to fish regularly years ago, and now I have more opportunity, and my local river only a short distance away, I'm getting right back into it.

Trout season on my stretch of river runs from 3rd march to 31st September.
