Moomins Get started

Typically since my lad and I decided to join the Species hunt a couple of weeks ago, we've had to cancel our fishing trips for various reasons so we are a bit slow to get off the Mark. However I got up early on Sunday and headed for the Gloucester canal to see if i could start us off with a Zed. I'm not that keen on sitting around with deadbaits so I concentrated on fishing small lures, on a rise and fall retreive. I fished diligently and carefully along a fair old stretch for a while without any result when finally I had a lovely solid thump on the lure and ended up with a beautiful solid Zed of about 5lb. Mission accomplished.



The one thing I love about getting up proper early to go fishing is that everybody seems much friendlier at 5.00am on a Sunday morning. dog walkers say hello, rowers shout good morning and joggers smile as they plod past. Generally by 8.00am everybody turns back into being surly and uncommunicative! I guess it must be the shared cameraderie of knowing that someone loves doing something enough to get up at 4.30am.

Re: Moomins Get started

Nice fish there mate,in all the years i have been fishing i have never caught a zander,in fact the only one i ever saw was on the river Ebro in Spain,
Since i have joined this forum and visit it regularly and read all the reports i dont think it will be too long before i buy my self some tackle and try for some of these fish myself
