I also saw my first Zed at Claydon, although I actually caught it! Got onto the Fens in the 1983 autumn and loved it so much that we just kept going back. Needed a Great Ouse rod license, back then, and they used to run out on 31st December - weird? As you know, I caught plenty of Cats from the Leighton Buzzard AC fisheries, spending many happy days in company of Vic Gillings and co. I think the best bit was having the opportunity to cross swords with Maddocks and Baldock - man we had some fun! Take care mate - I'll email you with some background stuff later in the week - DylDylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-1454175505275267512019-01-17T09:01:53.083+00:002019-01-17T09:01:53.083+00:00BB - that's an original "Brolly Camp"...BB - that's an original "Brolly Camp" - basically a canvas tent thrown over a Wave-lock umbrella! All I remember about Three Holes are Zander, Pike and hoards of bootlace eels! Lots of beer in The Cherry Tree at Welney, or The Ship at Manea, happy days!Dylan Wrathallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01285181139467170047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-89224449470634876232019-01-15T07:41:36.830+00:002019-01-15T07:41:36.830+00:00Never caught a Zander myself Dyl.

Come to think of it, I've never caught a Cat either.<br />I wonder what I was doing half the time.Richttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02714117508358025668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7338589224051075532.post-4201833334652397372019-01-13T20:09:01.463+00:002019-01-13T20:09:01.463+00:00Seen some cracking rudd just behind where that biv...Seen some cracking rudd just behind where that bivvy was pitched this year Dylan.Bureboybloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06517207672662059349noreply@blogger.com
