Fished from 8:30 till 6:30. was tough going at first but ended up with 4 in the end...One of my mates from work had 3, and My other mate had 6 with probable heaviest bag of the week...
1 of them being a 6lb 10 Monster!!!! He only weighs about that so it was a great fight!!! U'd think he was landing a Marlin the little Wimp!!! HAHA...
Tried float for a couple of hours, with no prevail, changed to the bottom, then the fish came...My biggest about 3lb...
I was the last 1 there, and when I cleared everything in the car, I left my float about 35 yds out...Packed everything away apart from rod...
And just as I returned to retrieve rod in, I seen Float dissapear...****!!!
I brought it in with my big white bucket already containg 3 Fish!!!
Was close to tipping th lot in at 1 point!!!
Was gana get gear backm out n keep Fishing!!! HAHA....
Orange Powerbait was the Call of ther Day !!!

Saying that wouldnt want my mother getting the taste of Trout I've just got her used to thinking Ling is the new Cod .
