Luke & I decided to head down the Gower for a little Bumble today. We had a few little bits of new gear to try out, and fancied a bit of fresh air. We bumped into another bumbling father & son team in the form of softie & JCMR - nice to see you gents !!

Well, we didnt catch anything in the heavily coloured water, but enjoyed nonetheless !!!

A couple of pics from our bumble (on the FT1) . . . . . .

Basswalker on some lovely Shirley ground . . . .

Big fatty Lewis (trying out the new chest-pack) . . .

Luke stuffing his face (as happy as can be . . ). . . .

A cracking Gower sunset . . .

The Worm with a Snow Storm coming in from the West at sunset . . . .

Another Worm shot (got home before that Snow Storm struck) . . .

Looking forward to writing a report with pics of fish as the weather warms up (on the Abbot Ale this evening incidentally) !!

[Simon Clapham]

Nice to bump into you both too Si, cracking day wasn't it....the sunset does the day justice.....but where did all those bloody tourists come from??
Covered some lovely ground today....only more for the next season to go at again :horsesword:

Did you get caught in the snow on the way home Si?

 

[Simon L]

Unbelievable number of tourists !!! As busy as a summer Bank Holiday !! Car park was rammed.

Managed to stay ahead of the snow . . . thankfully !!

[Simon L]

Looks like a fantastic day out. Tough luck on blanking, but you never know when that 'rock' is going to start pulling back....

Well done for getting out there guys. Shame about no fish, but it was such a cracking day, who cares? I had a walk (no rods) with the family down at Wiseman's and it was packed with tourists too! Water was coloured but very flat. Snow here as I mentioned elsewhere so if it clears I may have a go tomorrow. Nice photos btw!

 

[Steve Payne]

Some nice pictures, its a shame you had no fish to round the day off.

I went out today and blanked big time !! Water was coloured with the strong easterly. Still lovely afternoon and found some great spots with the big tide. I couldn't believe that there were loads of great fish holding areas within yards of where I normally fish. I'll be taking my time a bit more this season and covering alot more water !! :wackit:
