so my first post of 2018 and well it was supposed to be about a trip i had down south with the amazing and very funny Mr Hugh cassey , unfortunately i have had some issues with the pictures of the trip due to the i cloud thing so kinda really cocked it up for that post im afraid.
but even despite our best efforts on a very colored river we failed to connect with any fish , although i had a couple of follows and a real rod shaker of a bite but hey thats fishing nothing ventured nothing gained . i shall be returning again down there in august and i did meet some great people and Mr casseys hospitality was beyond brilliant and what a fantastic angler he is out everyday i can never thank him and jones enough .
curry night followed by sever gales
i really loved the small tidal river getting up close and personnel
the local chip shop owner was also very metal , sure he gave us extra chips
also really enjoyed a wee tying and q+a session in hughs local always enjoy doing these and really nice to chat to folks who haven't fly fished for pike before but were interested in what i had to say
so thank you hugh cassey and jones and lewes see ya again soon
*typical after i left the river cleared up and i got a report of an 18lb fish out on one of my flies , id left some with the local head river baliff who had lost a load of stuff due to his car being broken into well done mate
