Disabled anglers can still wet a line!

January 5th 2010 00:42
Here's very inspiring story about British angler Nick Rowe that was broadcast on the BBC....




Nick suffers from osteo-arthritis which has affected most of his joints. None the less, bound to a wheelchair, he still gets out there and, by seeing that carp, you know he's not just catching guppies!
<<<<<>>>>>


Here's another video...



A few years ago, frustrated at the lack of angling activities for the handicapped, Nick launched "Reels on Wheels" which is a buddy system for handicapped anglers to get out and fish with more able bodied anglers.

Here's a link to Nick's blog and more inspiration that will make us appreciate what we have!

Remember to take the hooks outta yer pocket before ya sit down!
