Goole is a port town, so yeah, somewhere one could fish, on the River Ouse in Yorkshire, and one of the footbridges across the railway is “the Monkey Bridge, off Gordon Street.”
BTW “bazzin” means great, and “chocca” is full, crowded, as in “chock full” or “chock-a-block”.
Sooo… Mac’s cat friend lives in Little Airmyn, in Yorkshire, but technically, he does his fishing in Goole, near the Monkey Bridge, and teaches fly casting. The classes are great, and always full.

Little Ayrmyn existed in the past, at least.
