Check out my angling website, it is updated every Saturday with an article. You can find it @ anglingdiarydotcom.

I don't reply to YouTube comments (just a time management thing, nothing personal).

But you can connect with me on my facebook page. The link is on the angling site.

Linked to my twitter it also carries updates from the water's edge. See you on there!

these eels are critically endangered aren't they?

[addernoir01]

@SpinelessScales Not round here there's hundreds of them.

[addernoir01]

@SpinelessScales No, not in England - they are prolific.

Another good tip is if you dont want to keep catching perch or samall pike, just use a big ball of bread, rapped around a size 12 barbed/barbless hook and then a puddle float or a small ledgure and unless there is large roach around only an eel will pick it up!!!

nice Vid!!
