Happy new year

Well hello one and all!

I am sure you have all forgotten me by now, or at least tried too!  Been busy this end which is why i have failed to pos over recent months, also the firewall at work now stops me from actually posting on the site, i can only view.  So I have been looking but was unable to post.  I will attempt to be better this year I promise!  Just stuck a few photos of fish I have caught recently hope you dont mind but no sea fish as I have not had the cash to get out on the boat this year, and when I did the charter skipper crashed into a reef and we had to be rescued by the life boat...in the bloody harbour, very embarrasing and not much fun!

Going to try this new, to me anyway, uploading process it looks good.

 

A new PB barbel caught from the river Wye in wales near a place called Ross-on-Wye, it went 10.4lb and was caught on trout pellet and trout pellet paste.  I also caught another 4 that day all between 7 and 9lb.

 

 

This was one of the bigger carp I caught in Spain on the river ebro.  This one weighed 31lb and it was caught on boilies, along with all the other carp we caught.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also in Spain this one weighed 30lb exactly

and this one weighed 23.4lb, caught from a boat.

 

This one was 28.8lb also in spain.  And below is a Spanish crayfish!

 

Finally a 21.15lb mirror carp caught from my local lake, on sweetcorn

 

Take car one and all.  I will be trying to get on a few boat trips in the next few months so will try and keep you posted.  Weathers really cold here at the moment and most lakes and drains are frozen and hjave been for about 5 weeks now, so its a bit tough at the moment.  Take care and tight lines rog

 

ps soz about the cricket!!! xxxx

Happy New Year, you must be having a "lush" time of it over there with the cricket the way it has played out.
