| Re: BRRRRRRRRRRanscombe :-@ 02/01/2010 To paraphrase the genius that is Dougless Adams, you will always be prepared if you've got your towel. Only brought some thin cotton socks for four hours of fishing in temps circa -4 deg C???? No problems - Just wrap yer feet in towels and you'll be set for the fish fest that will undoubtedly follow. Well, yer feet will be fine anyway, I may have made the fish fest bit up..... __________________ Right then, checklist: Rods. Check. Reels. Check. Speckled Hen. Check. Bait…… BAIT!
