I started fishing when i was eight .  I caught my first fish in this pond amongst the cluster of trees on the map here : https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.0909102,-2.8594747,75m/data=!3m1!1e3

We walked across five fields with ditches and barbed wire fences with shakespere boxes and large holdalls on our backs to get there  . A proper slog .  Part of my soul has a datum point set there  .  There has always been an ancient family of foxes who live in a large underground set under the trees at the back of the pond.  When we used to fish there alot,  we used to leave them some cat buiscuits by the set . And they would come out while we were fishing to eat them .   The fishing is no longer evident in there when i went to visit the pond last year and never got a bite .   The water level then was 3-4ft down than average  . It used to be a popular natural fishing pond round there before private fisherys sprang up .      Just by learning the hobby of fishing has opened up many other knowledge routes that i wouldnt otherwise know about nature and the earth by not going fishing .  Other than course fishing .  I was in new brighton sea angling club for a few years traveling around the uk beachcasting with them .  I have also been in a boat fishing club going out the mersey bar light and fishing off wales / anglesey boats , whitby . scarborough .  Fished for carp in canada 3 times . Im now in a syndicate club with a private lake near by since 2009.    

My latest fishing scene of interest is the tidal river douglas that ive been getting good natural dangling from  .
