So the glorious 16th has been and gone again for another year. This year i realised a childhood ambition and fished opening day on the Kennett and although i didn't catch a thing i had a very pleasant morning followed by a evening on a stretch of the Thames.
I returned to the same stretch of the Thames today and got dropped off by my daughter who well done to her passed her test on Friday,we arrived at 830am and she left me too it and for the first time in a long time i took a stove and cooked food and boiled water for coffee.I don't know about you but flask coffee tastes completely different to fresh made coffee and sausage in a bun tasted well as only outdoor food could.All this made the day go with a swing and it mattered not one bit i didn't catch a thing but hey who cares.
So back to today's issue or what i saw as a issue but know realise was not really.I sat there today just upstream of a well known Berkshire town and saw the armada that's is known as pleasure boats come sailing past me good job i had some back leads and was able to pin the line to the deck. Big boats were just plain rude a number of times i thought that i was going to get swamped by the wash but just managed to move back in the nick of time. But the rivers there for all and i suppose i can fish into the evening/night and that will solve that issue.
