plus a dab of luminous paint...Excellent.

But wait...why not a conventional buzzer in a bamboo case???

Oh no! I think I'm going down the same route as the sixty quid stainless and cane "traditional" indicators...this is not a good idea!!

And we mock the modern day bivvy brigade with their green camouflage bait buckets. To me this is just as bad.

My Mum has been given some of these. Apparently they are designed to rattle when a someone tries to steal things from a ladies handbag. Might be good to clip to these cork bobbins?

Not a fish was visible that first time I visited Beechmere; an utter
stillness brooded over the place and I felt the strange and sinister atmosphere which, so the story goes,
has been the cause of several suicides.’
