The fish are just a bonus when the world looks like this.

As you can imagine, he was not happy about this at all, and he managed a few days before he eventually discharged… ## [Three score & ten (an up-date)](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/12/three-score-ten-up-date.html) _2025-12-24 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ As the clock announced the arrival of, Thursday, 4th December I had successfully made it to my seventieth birthday. Not something I would mention under normal circumstances, yet, because this number represented the figure that my junior school teachers had said would be the best we could hope for (Remember this was in the 1960's) it is worthy of note I feel? My family felt it was justification for… ## [Getting back in the groove - very slowly!](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/11/getting-back-in-groove-very-slowly.html) _2025-11-18 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ I'd be a complete fool if I said anything other than the fact that my physical (& mental) wellbeing was still a cause for concern - on a personal level. Energy levels and lack of appetite might be a hangover from the bout of Covid I suffered prior to the Kefalonia holiday? My anxiety issues are far more complex and certainly have their origins firmly linked to Bev's passing. However, the clock… ## [A Guy Fawkes Pike](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/11/a-guy-fawkes-pike.html) _2025-11-05 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ It was a little before 04.30 hrs, this morning, that Bruno and I headed off down to the RMC for our first session in over two weeks. Thankfully, a Pike had read the same script as I had which resulted in my first "double" of the campaign. No monster but, at eleven pounds fourteen ounces, most welcome all the same. I'd been hoping that the local college would hold a firework display, yet this was… ## [November surprise](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/11/november-surprise.html) _2025-11-01 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ Apologies for the recent lack of up-dates, I've not been in a very good place; mentally, of late.

Basically, I was looking for alternative venues should the RMC remain out of sorts? I'm actually toying with the idea of a spot of Perch fishing, but haven't made any plans as yet. So, as we were out in the general area, I decided to take a wander… ## [A gloomy Tuesday](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/10/a-gloomy-tuesday.html) _2025-10-14 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ Well I attended this season's first Canterbury/Thanet PAC Regional meeting not having registered a single bite from a Pike, thus far, this season.

This is exactly how my 2025/26 RMC campaign has started. Two sessions, in a prime spot, yet not a murmur from the alarms. There was a third session planned, yet grand-parenting duties had to take priority and the chance was missed. So, if I am to have anything to… ## [Nenechávejte na dosah dětí](https://jankrsnak.substack.com/p/nenechavejte-na-dosah-deti) _2025-10-11 · Jan Kršňák · Atlas proměn_ Článek psaný pro Salón Práva, kde vyšel upravený.

We'd all gone out there, this year,… ## [Sunshine Pike fishing](https://dylan-wrathall.blogspot.com/2025/10/sunshine-pike-fishing.html) _2025-10-04 · Dylan Wrathall · Of Esox & observations_ Fellow blogger, Brian ( Pike Blog ), has summed it up quite simply with his latest offering entitled Pike Time. October is here and the 1st saw the start of yet another traditional season.

After collecting Bruno from my neighbours Glynis & Terry, I did little more than get the suitcase from the van and have a quick snack before the duvet was calling. Absolutely knackered, I didn't need much persuading, even though it was only half past nine! This morning we had a, rain shortened, stroll…
