| Just a couple hours fishing Well It was a lovely day today so I wanted to get a few hours fishing in with my Dad Started of fishing a local hidden away Lake near my dads travelling light so we could just have a couple hours of fun fishing in before it got to dark with a whip and light tackle going for smaller fish hopeing to catch roach , rudd and perch really Ended up with lots of roach and roach up to 1 & 1/2 lb so really pleased but no prech what so ever ( We tryed everythink you could think of!!! Took a gamble swinging this one in 1 lb plus  In A match I would used the landing net as I was only fishing 2lb main line with a 1lb hooklengh , size 20 hook So very light end tackle.... On the way home I stopped of to one of old time hot spots on the itchen to see if we could catch a couple of graying one of my best river fish ,Great fun fighting fish if you use light tackle Started of lose feeding a few gains of corn and a few handfulls of maggots upsteam then 5 mins later a browny jumped so that bought a smile on my face Ended up catching the only two but not bad for 1/2 hour fishing One fish was caught using a stick float 3lb mainline with a 1.7lb hooklengh size 18 hook on double red mag just totting down the river and the second was caught using a fine quiver tip rod with a 1/2 once lead and 6 ft hooklengh with a single gain of sweetcorn  I fancy giving this spot ago next week maybe as it brings back many happy days fishing the river bank and it was the same old spot where I caught my 1st grayling about 8 years ago Also I had a little walk downsteam to notice a couple of pike in the margins which I hope will be waiting for me next time It was getting dark and my mums sunday dinner was waiting so what do you do!!!!!!
