fish at last
G'day all
Just a quick post to say finally, and only for a few hours I might add, the weather here in 'ol blighty actually brightened up and the wind dropped, allowing me to get out for a few hours on a local lake. I was fishing very light tackle, 4lb main line and 1.14lb hooklink to a size 20 hook with maggot for carp and roach. I caught 18lb of fish including carp to 4lb and perch(redfin) to about 1.5lb, unfortunately no photos but thought I would let you know that I was still fishing and not been washed away by the floods!! Next sunday I have a cod and conger trip off the isle of wight, so watch this space...weather permitting!!!
Tight lines and keep posting as the photos of the awesome fish will draw me back quicker!!!
