22 Apr 2015 Waveney Valley Lakes 1985

1985 old-school waveney-valley

Back in 1985 I visited the famous Waveney Valley lakes in Norfolk with three other friends, as you can see the kit has changed but I haven't!
This is G lake and at the time was stocked with plenty of 20lb carp which avoided capture really well on this trip. It was late season and we only managed one fish between us but I did go back for another visit the following year and made up for it with a few really chunky 20's. Alas those pictures are long lost and all that survives of my visit is a few slides I took which I have now scanned. Here we are in 2015 and it's hard to believe that this was so long ago.
