3 fished tonight.
Kev, myself and Paul B.
We arrived, set up, Paul said it felt fishy.
we walked to the area where we intended to fish to see a guy was already there pounding and hammering away with 20-30g lures and in 2 hours, he'd had 2 bites, 2 fish.
It was bombed out.
We fished for half hour and I tld this bloke of our LRF exploits as kev nicked a few early fish.
Kev fished most of the night with a small JH and a smoke grey craw on my Shimano Diaflash.
It was actually very tough for an hour...
The guy left and we settled into little rhythmic sessions of fish. Kev was straight to a light jig, I was SSG to a 12 hook and Paul was using Tuna gear as usual..
But, it wasn't long before Kev started to run away with things. Bigger Pouting were thowing themselves at it tonight.
Pout like this..
And this, one was best side of 12oz.
Over half of tonights catch was decent Pout.
I'd lost a big fish early in the session. I walked around the corner a bit but soon heard a screaming drag. As I scuttled around, Paul lost a BIG ! fish. He was now of course on an SSG and a Carolina rigged Reins bait to a size 12. Minutes later he had this. Kev was nearing 20 fish and was thinking about the LRF session record....
This was a nice fish. He had another just like it too not minutes later.
Like this...
Well fought out stuff...here is a nice one in the water just before landing..
The face of the quarry...
Brilliant session, hard though at times. Fish numbers of course don't reflect that.
We all caught 2 species.
Kev took the most LRF points in one session record.
22 fish, 2 species = 24 points
Paul, 15 fish, 2 species for 17 LRF points and for me...
13 fish, 2 species, 15 LRF points.
Grand total of 50 fish
Can this stuff possibly get any better....
I think, absolutely !
