Hillview Fishery, Canals 3 & 4

April the 18th, 15 fished. A Wythall Royal British Legion contest today, at the prolific Hillview Fisheries, and for this event we had booked canals 3 and 4.

Ghost Pool, Woodland View

July the 28th, 16 fished. A Wythall Royal British Legion AC contest today, at Woodland View fishery, in rural Worcestershire.

A venue often referred to as “Blower Park” due to […]

Lower Park, Willow Pool

February the 14th, 27 fished. A trip to Lower Park today, for the Senile and Shirkers’ Thursday Open – and it would be fair to presume that a number of the anglers attending this contest might be classed as “experienced.” In fact, being just forty years of age, I believe I only received an invite […]
