Hello I have not been or put anything down for nearly a year. My fishing after doing so well last year really came to an end, I fished some of the rivers a round my way, but saw nothing and caught nothing. I ended up fishing the coast for the salmon and other fish, the fishing was not over productive, but it is nice to do something else and with lures and soft plastics you can cover a lot of area. Even though the ocean is a massive place. I ended up fishing some of the rivers in the wider area. I managed 1fish of 6lbs 1st cast out to an area I had looked at a few times, but never fished it before. I thought I was going to have a great day, but other than a slight tremble on the rod top, which did not lead to anything. The day was quiet I fished this area a few more times and looked a round and found two fish of under doubles, but they were in such a tight shaggy area it was not worth fishing to. A friend came over from the u.k and we fished another river, which I had heard that had done some good fish. Even though this was a good while a go, the area looks so carp york fishy, but after a few sessions, we had nog seen a fish or had a bite. To try and catch something before my friend went back to a place I had fished before. We managed 15 fish to just under doubles and lost another 10 fish, looking at some of the fish there is potential of a much bigger fish. Really after I had not fished the last 5 months, I have looked a round a few areas, but have not found anything really exciting as yet. For now tight lines stpkecarper12
