I don't but my Dad was a very keen fisherman. My eldest boy does a bit and loves it. I use to when younger, but not my cuppa now.
I am sure Vince does a bit.

Loved it when I was a lad. Bait fishing on rivers and lochs.
. Maggots and worms mostly. (Never got into fly fishing somehow 
). And I get seasick trying to sea fish...

I have never seen trout on sale here and I really love it - probably one of the few fish I do like. So one thing to look forward to when in the UK

That is good that you have found something to relax you and ease the stress you say you are under

I just cannot understand this crazy with carp fishing in still waters . Cast the boilie out and spend the next few hours waiting for some sounder to go off must be boring as hell that's why they all have sleeping bags and all that crap. They all seem to be asleep or pi$$ed when I walk past them.

There is no need to spend all that cash on the gear and the permit just go straight down to Tesco and find the nearest bench.

Don't need a rod licence up here. Bloody liberty that rod tax...what's next? A tax on cricket bats?, tennis racquets? money grabbing gits...
