Re: Does anyone here fish?

I live close to the Bridgewater Canal and it's well-stocked with fish so I would think the Leeds-Liverpool is too, these days.

Raz, don't you find it a bit boring? I used to go sea fishing off Whitby pier, when we lived there donkey's years ago, and that could be quite exciting when the tide turned. The kids used to catch coley and insisted on having them grilled for their tea - there were more bones than fish but, hey, they'd caught them themselves. I can see that salmon fishing might be good too, with the battle against the fish trying to swim up the river, but I've never understood sitting for hours on a canal bank. I think I'd probably fall asleep.
