Hi All

I will be doing some work up in Audenshaw, Manchester for a couple of weeks and considering taking my gear with me, so I may get in a couple of hours after work.

Does anyone know of anywhere decent on day ticket around the area, I see the Tame is very close.

Also anyone know what the area is like, not sure I want to leave rods in car, I think hotel will be in Ashton-under-lyne.

Cheers
Dave

Dave,

Much the same as everywhere else I'm afraid, don't leave them in the car. I've parked up in Audenshawe a few times and thought about taking the steering wheel with me. EEK!

Other advice is pretty much spot on...

Thanks all.

What is usually better and would you have any directions, where to park etc.

Any day tickets for any of the club waters in area?

I think it would be fine in Audenshaw, the office/car park is in enclosed with fences, so that should not be a problem, hopefully. Just may be the hotel, suppose I can just take the rod bag into the room.
