Pike Pool (93) Dave Horton

Post by Jason Skilton »

Hello Piking Brothers,

With the country being battered by the tail of the Hurricane Gonzalo, most of us are tucked in a office, factory, lounge or braving it out in a brolly.

So settle back in the chair and enjoy a piking tale from a piking legend, the one the only Mr Dave Horton.

A great story and three twenty pluses from a river is a very good day in my book but looking at it has a reward for getting scammed is a no no ,more like water craft on both Dave & Les side not yin and yan. :grin:

A lovely piece of writing Dave, yet more evidence that you should write a follow up to Ultimate Pike and this time more of you in it. Thanks for that Dave. :thumbs:

You guys are saying it's a good story, is it readable for you? :scratch:

As a bloke who`s a bit trusting (stupid) and have been scammed a couple of times I remember selling a bivvy to a "mate" who told me he`s father would come around and pay me the £50 that evening,never saw hide or hell of either of them or the £50 or the bivvy again, this was about ten years ago but I won`t forget it or let it go if I ever see him again. :mad:
