yesterdays fishing

[jools]

Saturdays match started with an ice breaking session 2to3 inches thick in parts the guys worked hard to clear it… they fished one side of the lake only pegs 1 to 12 leaving 13 to 24 empty not surprisingly bites early on were few and far between and weights were a little low 6lb plus winning from peg 2 picture below is looking from peg 12 downwards…the sun shone all day and despite the lack of fish a good day had by all….I didn’t fish been out 2 weeks nursing an operation on my elbow so I had to be happy with spectating…..going to give it a go next week

Thank goodness for gobal warming, just think how cold it would be without it

It does look cold, and looks like it was hard work, i remember those days, sat on a box waiting for slightest movement on the pole float. brr glad i live in the south where us whimps live.
