Just uploaded an article about the opening of a new fish pass on the Trent at Colwick. Sounds like good news for migratory species in particular and it has the potential to revitalise coarse fishing on the upper river and its tributaries.

Now the dust has settled following Wednesday evening’s NPS show at Newark Showground – this is just part of the audience – it is time to reflect.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who dropped by for a chat or to purchase a copy of my new book, The Mighty Trent. It was a huge privilege to meet you all and my only regret being I wish I’d had more time to spend with each of you.

Based on book sales and various other discussions I reckon I spoke with over two hundred attendees during the course of the night which equates to just one minute each, but, wen we take out the time allocated to the talks so it boils down to barely 30 seconds each which is far too short.

Should you bump into me when I’m out and about please feel free to stop me and say hello. I at least owe you that. And if the timing is inconvenient I’ll explain and we can do it later.

I know from someone who had pre-ordered a copy that he received an email yesterday telling him his book had been dispatched and from what I can gather, all pre-orders will now be winging their way towards expectant purchasers so listen out for a knock on the door anytime soon.

Thank you everyone. I’m feeling suitably humbled and now looking forward to hearing some constructive feedback either online or privately.

Tight lines all.

The wait is finally over. I guess I began this book a lifetime ago but the past 18 months have been pretty intense but every second was worth it. I am so proud to finally lay my hands on a copy of ‘The Mighty Trent’. Gosh it is a big book. Almost 300 pages and in the largest format Little Egret Press produce. Hands up, my amateurish editing attempts on a mobile phone have blurred parts of the cover in this picture for some reason but the actual cover is perfectly sharp. And no, I’ve no idea why!
It launches tomorrow evening at the Nottingham Piscatorial Society Speakers Evening at Newark Showground where I will be signing copies and giving away the acclaimed 4-DVD set (Caught In The Act) to anyone purchasing my book on the night.
Pre-ordered copies will be hitting the post on Thursday and hopefully and could be dropping on doorsteps this Saturday.
Hoping to see quite a few followers tomorrow evening (Weds 6th November). Doors open at 6.15pm and I wonder who is going to be first in the queue?
See you there.
