We put in at the Crighton access point on the James River this afternoon. The light was excellent and the colder weather meant that there was no one else around. This was our first time out in a ‘proper river’ with a bit of a current, so we had a bit of fun with a couple of riffles. I decided not to take my anchor of fishing gear. I should have taken both; the anchor so we could stay in one place when we stopped for a drink, and the fishing gear because there were a lot of likely looking spots for fishing.
