I just walked Sky round the lake and to talk to the bailiff who was fishing.
As we walked round I was keeping Sky calm, she likes James, so bounces, and because I thought he was margin fishing I called out 'hello' well before I got to him so he could come back to the main track past his swim, rather than me walk along the bank and possibly disturb his fishing, especially as I could see fish in front of him.
We did stand talking fishery, syndicate and rules for around 30minutes, and the fish in front of him evading his baits.
He was no more than 5metres from his rods even on the path.
Hopefully it is respect.
