WITHOUT even reading the article I immediately recognised the photograph of the boys fishing at the Hamworthy power station outlet. As a young lad I use to go there to fish.
What was so amazing was that I used bicycle valve rubber as bait (probably not known today) and never failed to catch bass from the warm water of the power station outlet.
Happy memories.
