Cheer's for that Billy, I saw it on the local news a couple of nights ago and forgot to mention it. I really hope it gets sorted soon too, really bad news that.

I joined the Derwent angling club last year and did enjoy fishing the river but its not really my cup of tea. Much prefer the wide open spaces of reservoirs.
Also on the river had quite a few annoying midge bites.
The spill has not helped-hope its ok for the next season.
