All hail the start of the 2010 sports fishing season!
May 1 conjures up lots of thoughts depending on culture and experience: a maypole, a parade of military might, Labour Day and, for many of us, the recognised start to the summer angling season.

Here it is the end of April: plenty of sunshine, refreshing breezes and it almost looks like the showers have come and gone and high summer cannot be too far away.

You have to wonder where all this weather is coming from. Forget global warming, everybody seems to be freezing. The US East Coast has had more snow this year that in almost a century; the UK has had loads of the white stuff, not to mention frozen pi...
