The smiling angler... in your swim?
Well stuff my eyeballs with roasted quiver tips, I never saw this coming!
It's precisely 2.59am...
On a perfect June night you arrive at the pristine lake with military precision and sky high hopes.
At last!
Your hellish week at work waiting for the next three nights escape is finally over.
And so thirty sweaty minutes later gasping for air, you finally drag your obese tackle barrow to the swim you've secretly been pre-baiting for five nights.
When suddenly you nearly vomit.
Because he's... already there!
Like a VAMPIRE in the night, this fiend is already sucking your swim dry. Hoovering out every last speck of hope left in your sole.
It gets worse.
Within seconds of your stunned arrival he hits a screeching, heartbreaking... murderous run.
And so,
One epic battle later...
The carp of your dreams rolls over ready for him to scoop up.
Yet of course you land it because he tells you to...
"Don't stand there mate!
This beauty is too big for me to net on my own.
Help me out. Cheers bud!"
Quite speechless,
You notice something familiar as he unhooks the beast...
A Weeping Willow Fashgut Narwhale Boilie hanging prettily below the giant gasping bottom lip.
Yup!
Unmistakeable Narwhale all right.
The same wallet bashing bait you busted a gut to feed all week after back shifts without anyone seeing.
(Or so you thought).
Anyway...
You obediently take the hero shots for him like the 'good bloke' he says you are.
A few minutes later his mobile lights up with admiring chatter from all and sundry congratulating him on Instacrack.
You in the meantime...
Shuffle off to a bleak dark peg, feeling like someone just stole your girlfriend.
Three bite less days later you resurface a near broken man.
Your shift starts in two hours.
Grim eh?
So what to do?

Soon we'll all become ultra 'Connected' - Mobile, Computer, TV, Internet... ('er even our brains they reckon!)
Complex as heck too.

And yes I admit, I'm a tad too 'Old Skool' for some reading this.
Can't help it. I just like...
- Worms
- Wild carp
- Chris Yates, Kevin Nash, John Bailey, Ivan Marks, Dick Walker, Ray Mumford (Ray who?)
- Home made boilies
- 1970s Rock n' Reggae
- Plastic sweetcorn
- Wild trout
I like paper and ink too...
I can leave it lying around.
Scribble notes, underline important bits and go back to it whenever I wish.
Reliable.
Not lost in hundreds of emails etc.
Info in print is easy to grasp. Goes in deeper, more profoundly too.
That said...
Even though I'm a gnarly 'Old Skool' Ad veteran, I'm not stupid.
You'd be blind not to see what's happening in marketing now with Mobile, Video and AI.
Best of all what's inside your brief is...
Simple, EASY, reliable
So if I pay your postage, would you like me to send you a copy?
YES you get it FREE... via good old snail mail :)
