Thumbs up Hello! Born Again Angler Here!

Hello
Well the title says it all really. I used to fish when I was very young with my dad, now I am 51 and I'd like to take it up again. I live in Bath so have the Kennet & Avon Canal and the river Avon very nearby. If you know of any good spots to fish do let me know eh?

Anyone in or local to Bath say hi on here please. I'd like to find a fishing buddy if possible?

Take care and be lucky!

Colin.

Cheers Rob, Paul, Doug. Seems like this is a good friendly fishing forum?

Looking forward to getting to know you all and maybe meeting and fishing with some of you?

Bath/Bristol area anyone?

Colin.



PS. Like the winter poem Doug! Lol.

My last fishing trip was a flop,

the rain and the wind wouldn’t stop,

my wife got her wish,

I took home some fish,

(it’s a secret they came from the shop!)

Thanks for the welcome Keith

Nice little site mate! Hope you don't mind me pointing out, I couldn't get the articles or angling news to work though. Kept getting "HTTP 404 - File not found, The page you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable." and "Please reload this page to view the headlines" respectively. I look forward to seeing it all working, great main photo Keith.

Cheers and take care.

Colin

Hi Colin,
I hadn't realised that some people couldn't get the links working on my website as they all work using Internet Explorer on my PCs at home and at work; so I will try to have a look at the problem next week when I get a little time.

Meanwhile Here are the Articles you should have been able to see on that page:

1. A beginers guide to float fishing on a canal
2. Long Trotting and the Centrepin Reel
3. Things that go bump in the night
4. Catching your first Barbel from a small stream
5.Choosing a swim for Barbel on a small Stream
6. What type of Forum'ite are you?
7. How could anyone not like fishing?
8. My 50th season has arrived

Anyway welcome back to the sport, tight lines

Keith (BoldBear)
