Dear Ed , can you give me any tips on staying safe whilst embarking on a fishing trip?
Great question Rob,
No 1 Don't let Phil Drive! If Phil does drive try and get one of the seats in the rear of the vehicle.
No 2 Don't let Phil or Martin in your peg on the river if its been raining or wet underfoot. they will only slip over and take you in the cut with them.
No 3 barbless hooks are easier to remove than barbed ones!
No 4 If Phil has driven , Walk Home! It will be much safer this way. The reputation of lorry drivers (Particularly Delivery Drivers) is not a myth they really don't give two hoots for other road users or their passengers.
I hope this helps
ED
