Wales v England

[Rat-man]

With the news that my brother Dan was fishing hobbs point, pembroke dock (wales) at the same time as i was fishing down dartmouth way last night, i challenged him to a 'race ya to the biggest' comp.

Weather was great, morale was high, and with a dozen mackeral caught for huss bait, i was well prepared for the comp.

I landed a couple of nice wrasse while it was light...lovely looking fish.



Then disaster via the phone Dan has caught his very first smoothound at 10lb i'm happy for him really.

now i'm playing catchup, using whole macky fillets for baits, all i'm getting is doggies, though i did lose 2 better fish.

Then at about 1-30am, i struck into something good. after a 5 minute fight, and a nervous solo effort with the net, i landed a good 8lb huss.




He was returned safely, as was Dan's smoothound. I guess i just about lost the wales v england comp, but at least we both got good fish.

I finished at about 3 am, for the hours drive home, watched the springboks beat the all blacks (taped) and fell into a comatose sleep... dreaming of huss.
