as near as dammit 70 and suffering from the result of fiftyodd years of tobacco abuse ,i am pretty good .
Had the good fortune to spend 3 days on the spey just before it all got locked down.
The beat my son and I fished has long long pools that are perfect for simple cast and swing .with my COPD despite using shooting heads on a 14 footer as a replacement to the 16 foot 65/75 foot DH lines ,half way down any of the pools ACW needs a sit down .
Regular fishing ,until the lockdown is Walthamstowe ressers ,easy for me to acess tube then bus to the main gate.
Much to the amusment of some of the other regulars with their #7/8 rods and barstool bricks on strings,I am doing Ok with my HT4 a full floater and either wee dries or classic Cove style teams ,that rod is just a super peice of kit ,thanks !

Re: Indicator Fly / Indicator with a hook
Thanks mate that’s great to know. It’s a great outfit for subtle take detection and can throw nicely into the wind if required.
Great to hear from you. I was planning a trip back to Europe this summer but my thinking now is that this is probably going to be put on hold for a year. We shall see! We need to try to get a day’s fishing in together when I’m over.
Cheers, Paul
