Did you take the lens cap off?

Sounds like a superb trip!

😂😂😂 I press add files choose the picture Chris and it just comes up with a black box instead of the photo   It’s a brilliant trip and just watching kingfishers taking more fish than me is more impressive they are lovely little birds

Ahh thank you Dave I will post them when I can I can not believe how many big fish Steve has had so far it’s over 20 now ( can’t believe I have still only had three 😂) but what a trip 

No disrespect to your fishing skills but I would imagine that Steve have done more fishing for these big fish than you , if he haven't then you are just having a spell of bad luck  :lol:.

Me and my younger brother used to take fishing parties out in the Winter time after Cod and Whitings , I always thought that everyone stand the same chance as everyone else whilst fishing on a boat , as I didn't do a lot of sea fishing I always seem to end up with less fish than the others , why ? I even had them bait my hooks up at times but still couldn't match the number these chaps caught , if I did get a bigger one it was more by luck than the little skill I had .:drinks:

Thanks marshman but I know Steve is a far better fisherman than I will ever be I took him to keston ponds ( local to me on Kent ) when he was about 8 and he was hooked from there spent all his life fishing and has no other hobbies apart from a bit of shooting ( that I am better at )  and goes to France or Spain every year for carp or catfish I am just proud to be here with him for the first time and tonight I have actually caught two  a 45 lb common and a 29 mirror I will post pictures on the forum when it allows me to still got two full days left
