| At last I found some fish Hi All, After my poor introduction to the world of fishing I stumbled upon Bax Farm Fishery. The place has 4 lakes and a meandering river which i fished today. I was set up buy 9am and spent a rather windy day catching small roach, about 20 in all. I also caught 2 larger fish, I think its a perch and a tench.. (how do i add pictures)http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...&id=1088030612 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...&id=1088030612 i also caught a good size carp which put up an almighty fight but i cocked up with the clutch and got him as far as the landing net and then lost him. I also had something quite big i think, I was sitting watching the rods which were both baited on tutifruti boillies. One of them with no notice bent in half, went sideways and ripped off the rest ,taking the other rod with it. by the time i finished pooing my pants and got hold of the rod, the fish or what ever it was had taken my method feeder and bait and left me with a perfectly cut line.. all i could say for about 5 minutes whilst grinning was 'what the f**k'... ![]() anyway, had a cracking day and looking forward to my next visit. |

| Re: At last I found some fish Nope the same species. The top one does look like it has been through the wars! and as you say the second does look much healthier. Well done. __________________ Blackwater Tackle Supplies Keep Ulster's Waters Healthy, Practice Catch and Release! |
