 That's about the size of the treble fishing hooks I use when out on the lumpy stuff. Where do you get your large trebles and how much are they? I got mine mail order from a tackle shop in Plymouth. IIRC, they cost £7.99 for a pack of five (size 10/0), but tha was at least 15yrs ago. |

WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO IF YOU DROP YOUR BIKE OR PICNIC CHAIR IN THE WATER ? I was just trying to refute my boat thief credentials before stabby and bfg arrive? I wasn't shouting at you, sorry Rog Looks like Jim saved us the worry of running over here and suggesting it. To be honest the thought never crossed my mind. Untill you mentioned it.😁😂 |

It can and does happen in all walks of life. In my civilian "normal person" role I retrieved a body from the Thames some years ago when it floated past while I was having a cup of tea moored near Rumnymede on the Thames. I now call that mooring (which I really like as its a really handy mooring) the "body mooring". anyway I brought it to the side with the dinghy and boathook for the rozzers to have a look at. In my professional capacity I have carried out dozens of corpse retrieval operations but I am not allowed to mention them here so I won't. Official secrets act and all that . The riddle of a floating dog walker is easiest to solve, don't you find? At least you have a lead. |
