Pussy Galore

The venue was Todber, Paddock lake and we all have to thank Steve for organising it.
Due to watering duties I was unable to get to the venue until around 3, Steve was set up on the damn wall, Ricky Lee in the swim Ben fished last year, his father on the opposite bank, roughly in the middle of the lake.
I was happy that the swim that I fished last year was free, I like it for the sense of 'age', ie its a little less modern looking.
The view to my right.

Central

The few to the left.

JP arrived soon after, choosing the swim between Ricky and Steve, facing into the wind, Alex was next and chose the swim to my right. Claudia was the last and was between Steve and Dave.
When JP arrived we slunk down to the tackle shop, investing in the lakes Red Factor along with a dip, total 15 pounds, plus a few other goodies racked up the bill.
Steve was the first to get into a which topped 17lb. We had to wait for night to fall before a feeding session began.

This was followed by Ricky, catching his first cat.

Onlyy a few minutes later, we headed over to get a few snaps of Alex's kitten.

I had no joy the first night, despite trying hard. My baits the red factor excited no reaction from the fish. I played about with meat on the float.
No joy.
I had to pop back to the nursery and check on some of the mroe sensative plants, whilst doing so I picked up some chilli plants for Alex and Claudia. Also some 'secret' special bait for cats, perhaps.....

Out of the bag.

Whilst at home/work I filled a bucket with a mass of pellets,and halibut oil and some sweetcorn, about 4kilo's, as heavy baiting got the moggies in, so we ha dheard.
I did some serious baiting, and sat on it.

It was time my lucky fish bougt me some luck.
Thankfully about 6 my heavier rod went off, and with a racing pulkse I struck to feel soemthing heavy. One of the downsides to a meet like this is when you get abite, you also get an audiance, which as this was likely to be my first cat, was a little worrying. One of the best things about the fight was the sight of my lead appearing, and the large swirl from the tale some distance away, I was accused of being too gentle, but I did not want to force things, and as long as it stayed away from snags I was not going to be too much of a bully.
Ricky did the homours with the net, and the assemble audience dealt with the fish whilst I readied my self for being photo'd.
The grin says it all.

Over to the others too add their bits.
