© MMV James Bryant, this site is dedicated to Keven Bryant (1964-1975) who knew the pleasures of fishing but was not given the time.
FISHING, if I a fisher may protest,
Of pleasures in the sweetest, of sports the best,
Of excercises the most excellent.
Of recreations the most innocent
But now the sport is marde,
And wott ye why?
Fishes decrease, and fishers multiphy.
(Thomas Bastard, 1598)
