Hospital Barbel


Sometimes, when I have an early appointment, I take the fishing gear with me to the hospital - with the trains on my side it's less than an hour to the riverbank - and hopefully a barbel - or in this case five!


I always travel ultra light - no point taking heavy stuff for a walk. Unhooking mat, weigh sling and boots are in the bag, triangle net with cut-down handle and four piece travel rod - sorted!

    1. The doctor said he hadn’t seen anyone else bring fishing gear… They must keep it in their cars..!

  3. Wonderful. I'm now of an age where funny looks just mean I'm doing something different from the herd. Mission accomplished. :)

    1. Cheers - maximising time on the bank - without needing a pit stop to pick up the gear!
