    On the arrival back into the UK after a cracking week away in Cyprus, I was greeted with the end of a very cold week at home. I had even missed some spring snow in Norwich, which I was very glad of. So, as I was planning to do the Sunday night and

    This spring I'll be mainly targeting tench! The opening three weeks of the season on my fishery hasn't exactly gone to plan but I’m saving my holiday for later on in May and June, when it really can kick off! At the moment, I'm being restricted to

    Coming into the last couple of weeks of the season, I was planning to go full steam ahead with two stretches of the Wensum. After giving my other half the bad news regarding my plans for the coming weeks, I was set and raring to go. My fishing was

    A Week to Remember - Justin Grapes

    It's not often that things all go right when targeting specimen size fish, so when everything clicks into place and things go to plan it's all the more sweeter. As in previous blogs, chub fishing has been at the front of my mind mostly. However, I

    Looking Back... Topping Off a Productive Spring

    I always try and set myself a target for each spring and, as normal, I set a target of one double figure tench - a high target but achievable at my chosen location. My choice of location was Bawburgh lakes, which I have fished for many years now and
