I went down to the river yesterday evening but had no luck whatsoever. I was trying out a cheep telescopic rod that I had got. Although a bit heavier than I am used to, it did cast well.
I had only taken two spinners with me and with the casting being better, I managed to loose both of them. The first one, I managed to get a line tangle. The spinner got caught up on something on the bottom, nothing would make it budge, in the end the line went. The second one I managed to get hooked up on the other bank of the river.
I did clear up the rubbish that some other people had left behind. I don't know if it was other fishermen or not, but I do wish people would take their litter and rubbish home with them.
