chrisjpainter Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I've just come back from a merry evening on the yak. I thought I was going to miss my chance because the weather was foul overnight, but the rain cleared by the late afternoon, the cloud hung around for long enough to give me a few fish and the sun came out for a pleasant paddle back. No crocodiles - the biggest was nearing the 10lb mark - but fun nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7daysinaweek Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Nice fish them CJP, did they give you a good run, that feeling is electric and when you get a fish on! I know of some people who despise pike, for me I think they are a fantastic fish, used to do quite a bit of piking in me younger days, they always went back to fight another day. atb 7diaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
