On Wednesday my bag referred to  as my ‘chub’ bag was finally laid to rest for a few months. It offers everything that I like about my angling, it’s lightweight, compact,  keeps me mobile and it can only fit the bare essentials, my angling  is lean, my approach is simple. On my last trip  of the season I took to the River Wandle (for the very first time) with friends Garrett and Tony. The technique was thus;- rolling a worm down some fast runs with aid of two swan shot and a no 1 next to the hook to keep the bait down. The result? Well Garrett sums up the trip perfectly in his own words here.

Here’s a video from Nick Fisher’s Screaming Reels series broadcast on Channel Four back in the 1990’s. I used to see Nick walking about in my neighbourhood here in the east end. He used to live just a street away, where his garden backed onto the canal by Victoria Park. Only last week I spotted a few large carp cruising past his back garden but alas no barbel!

From Izaak to Ray, the Walton way…
