fella Posted July 11, 2013 Report Share Posted July 11, 2013 On saturday, ready to burn to death in the midday sun - no shade on the middle of Grafham water! This is the only one we took snaps of, but we brought back ten, put at least fifteen back. Total weight we brought back was around 35lbs over ten fish. Plenty of 3-4lb, a couple over 5, and I'm still upset about the heavier lump that threw the hook... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In between trying to catch my first Zander (and failing) we whipped a sparkling white booby through the boils. A fish a chuck, and all were decent. The best days trout fishing I ever had. We were guided by Rob Edmunds as well, a properly good bloke who really, really knows his stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
