.....anyone know?

Knowlesy is fishing down Shropshire - i see him from time to time ...

I heard Lee Tomlinson did abit on a certain PAA estate lake over winter. Probably off down south now its warmed up.

The Leg-end is my hero, he fished Rob Hughes syndicate lake with me on a winter Ticket last year. Top bloke and did me a nice deal on 3 Nevs...!!!

Lowey.

I'll pass on your regards to coops when I next see him you naughty adopted frenchman

Brian Garner still very much involved and fishing a lake in the Midlands. I spoke to Sandy Smith a few weeks ago, he'll be trying his hand at Boundary this year.

I'm OK as well Paul, thanks for asking, just back from a trip to a very large water in Central France with fish to 44lb.

Ive not forgotten about you Richie .... your still a bitter old censored just like your mate the Ratman

Not quite as old as Tony as he's 50 on Friday, but the rest seems to fit.

Thanks for the points this season, much appreciated, can we have all 6 next time?

Hi Ritchie...nice to hear Mr Angry from Stoke is still around....and well done on the French 40...nowadays I tend to fish from the study in the house....spoils you a tad for bivvy fishing.....

Here's a pic of the lake and my luxury bivvy I took at six oclock today whilst feeding the ducks....

You missed a good doo at his 50th , Richie ...

4 points was a good year mate .... savour it
