I am an experienced shore angler from Cornwall as the name suggests.
I am currently in Manchester area (Denton) for 3 weeks on a training course and am looking to do a bit of river/canal fishing or anywhere I can chuck a lure.
I have just paid my license and visited a culvert I heard holds brown trout on the river Bollin. Are water levels low at the moment? only 2 and half foot at best so I didn't bother and thought I'd come and seek some advice. I have a 10-30g spinning rod loaded with 6lb mono. I have a selection of trout (mepps type) spinners, a few soft plastics and a shallow diving bass plug in my armoury (also my mullet gear so pencil floats and bbs) ideally I would love to catch Trout, Perch and pike.
I can offer a few tips for sea fishing in Cornwall in exchange
Cheers,
Tony
