@MarkWintleFishing Although I tried to catch fish from the Stour in 1972 my first proper attempt was in a match in September 1973 at Child Okeford. To celebrate this event I've gone back to a nearby stretch with similar tackle (an Edgar Sealey Contestant rod from 1969 (used an Edgar Sealey Black Arrow in 1973), an ABU 506 from 1972 (used an ABU 505 in 1973) and small balsa float) and the same tactics, a pinch of bread flake on a 16, to recreate the method.
50 years later I catch some nice roach plus a couple of good bonus fish which the old tackle handles well.
