[Mark Sleep]

Lovely fish! Is that the 90 or the 120?

 

[Pat]

Good lure caught fish

That Zonk looks pristine too - was it it's first cast :?:

It was relatively new. On its first outing a good pollack gave it a good thrashing and forced the lip up. After posting here, getting some advice and looking up Graham Hill's blog I carefully shaved the node at the back the lip and got it operational again:-D. Thanks everyone who gave advice as I thought this zonk was going to be consigned to the shelf....and they're expensive enough!

....The fishing is really on fire for you over there....

Yes, the fishing is good at the moment, but would you believe last season was better. Last year I managed 7 doubles; this year 1 so far.

Thanks for all the positive comments. Now I have a target to aim at....match Pat Connolly's surface caught fish:-D:-D:-D.
