Re: South Weald Brentwood
Maybe us old rockers could wet a line together one day.Talk about the old days and fishing.Due to lockdowns I have been growing my hair again,nearly back to 1975 length,just grey though.The missus isn't too keen,I like it!

Re: South Weald Brentwood
I suspect Tony is scouring his records of non complimentary photos of me.
Eagle Specimen group uniform ! And we always tried to copy the photos of our heroes in the Angling Times and Mail
I remember the taxi driver walking back to return the rig to us that has snagged his car on the back cast. An "interesting " conversation
Happy days!

Re: South Weald Brentwood
Last time I fished the Eagle was when the manager of the Rising Sun was Shot... didn't go back after that... Joined the LAA and rode up to Glemsford loaded up with fishing gear on my Suzuki AP50, more fun when I borrowed my mates Yamaha YDS7... his bike had a rear rack and I could get a tent on it...

I was sorry when Yamaha stopped their beautiful obscure model identity and started putting engine sizes on their bike model.Aitch wrote: ↑Fri Jan 14, 2022 9:24 am Last time I fished the Eagle was when the manager of the Rising Sun was Shot... didn't go back after that...

I wonder if its the long gap, but I don't remember being that nervous in what was a fairly " busy" place- just the lovely fish

Re: South Weald Brentwood
Me and my buddy were on the Eagle that fateful night and it kinda knocked our confidence... it was the last time we fished it... didn't do nights either again for a good 6 months
