Trout Tickling

We were down the Pub last night, and in the toilets above the urinal is a picture of some old time gents Tickling for Trout. Every time I see it, it reminds me of when my Dad taught me to tickle trout, and we spent many a happy day down Molly Quirk’s catching trout.

So it’s time to pass on my field craft knowledge to my sons. The first sunny day we get this summer, I shall frog march them down the Glen and get them wet, dirty and hopefully happy.

Whether they like it or not.

Despite your rantings, Trout-tickling with your kids can still get you put on the sex offenders register.

I've never tickled a trout, but I have spanked a monkey and drained a lizard.
