After seeing that picture, I agree with you. As for your "curse", this river has had Jack Hise basically take up residence. The Tube Terror has fished it. WarrenP has caught all of the fish enough times to be one a first name basis with them. The stockers have developed opinions on whether they prefer purple or orange Power Bait. I don't see you doing to much more. The Duck may not be Glasgow's Kelvin, but it is still an industrial little river. Both rivers still have trout.
