Can't remember the last time I had a good days float fishing on a river
(especially now the winter is here).
I have to follow the crowds to the commercials (with pole) to get a good
day in :-(

Nidd.

Float fishing rivers is tremendous fun, and done skilfully will often
out-fish other methods. I used to fish the Severn a bit around
Ironbridge, and while the days when I caught the most fish were usually
on the feeder, the most enjoyable fishing was long trotting a wire
stemmed avon in a fast, shallow swim.

Well.... I was in Cardiff last week and fished the River Taff at Radyr. Only
fished for just over two hours in the afternoon with a friend and we had 30
plus Grayling between us. All on the float with some cracking fast bites. I
missed loads! I'm just so out of practice.

Now that's interesting... I was in Cardiff a month or two back for a
wedding, and was looking at the river with interest. I love grayling
fishing, although the only place I've fished for them is Taunton. Any
info on tickets, location, etc greatly appreciated!
