7daysinaweek Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 went out last week on a stock lake of one of my friends, have not cast a fly for about 5 years, used to do quite a bit stock and wild brown, anyroads it was as cold as anything and lasted approx 3 hours out in the boat. caught two nice fish that took a bright orange thingy wet. takes were very slow but strong. they have a take of two fish on this water but i chose to return both fishy's as they gave great sport and returned well. going to get out a bit more again with fly, just fitting it around current stalking. here is one pic a little out of focus but best i could do with cold hands.

7daysinaweek Posted February 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Good for you,where about? hi u/d was over in cheshire on my friends lake, it has about 15 members and would say it is a good 2 acres of a lake, max depth about 7-8 foot pools, rest of it around 4-5 foot. lovely place and he heads up the working team for it. looking at the catch release it does not get fished a great deal and they have decided to put in some fish up to 4lb in the last couple of years. was really enjoyable to get that electric feel of fish on again. also sorry to hear your unfortunate situation re work. i myself work for a large organisation and manage staff, i would suggest ACAS they are a wealth of resource around employment law and mediation. hope all goes well for you. 7diaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul taylor Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Good on you for getting out in this rubbish weather we are having and catching a couple. None anglers don't understand the buzz you get when you hook a fish and long may that last, more space out there for the rest of us lol.
