cheers i will give you a shout if i see one

Went out Sunday with my mate, had 4 jacks and a few missed/lost fish between us but we were the only anglers on the lake who had any action, not a great day but good sport none the less, definately be going back.

I was out all day on the private lake, Kell came along, after fooling him that we were lost (made sure i went an unrecognisable route, thought about blind folding him, but he was driving). it was a blowy old day, we tried every bait known to man any way, in between flypasts by the Red Arrows which i had laid on specially for Kell we had a mad 15 minutes, I landed a nice fish of 12lbs 3ozs and before i had chance to re bait that rod, my second rod was in, Kell did the honours again and did the net bit and the unhooking, he said it was that long since he landed a Pike he needed to keep in practice this time it was about 7lbsish. I lost a good high double at my feet, Kell was heart broken although he hid it behind a laugh, i know he was upset for me all in all a great day and good company, thanks Kell I will come to you in a couple of weeks time and you can get your own back

well done mate keep up the good work.

Good to hear somebody is catching

an sharing a good laugh an banter

GOOD ON YOU LEFTY!!!
My missus regularly reminds me that it is not the years, but rather the weekends, that have done me in.............

must admit that I don't feel a day over 29 either...............

I'll have to change that to "I regularly feel a 30 yr old" after January 25th

Thanks, Baz, Nick and M.B.A It was a good day and as usual when some of us get together it was good crack, just been thinking how good this forum is for finding new fishing mates, looking foward to future dates out on the bank
