Pike Pool 22 (Russel Fitzpatric)

Post by Emma Hamilton »

Our Russel jumps back in the Pool for a second splash with more London Urban pike fishing for us to read.

He details a right Old Urban Tear Up that'll make you want to check out your own Inner City spots that you may have had your eye on but not got your head around giving a go !

Enjoy !

There's about two years worth of good stuff in Pike Pool already...if you had to stretch it between the adverts, the 'advert-orials'...and the editors latest trivial childish rantings... of a conventional magazine.

It just goes to show what complacent idiots there are, when there's brilliant stuff like this around Image Image Image Image

Great read Ratty, reminded me of my 'urban' Piking in the 80's what with cars,trains,sirens and just general noise and s**t scenery but excelent Piking so tolerated the grim side of doing it. Image
