Congratulations to Jim as he has reclaimed the club championship on our club loch. He is far to modest to say this himself so I have taken it upon myself to let you all know.

Thanks folks.
Ah.my little incident.I had lost a couple of fish so I was getting slightly stressed.I Then hooked a lively wee rainbow. I started to make my way to the bank(Iwas wadeing) I stumbled and went head 1st into the loch,but I held the rod up and tight to the fish. and after looking round to see who had witnessed my swimming incident(1angler) I had a good belly laugh. and landed the fish. luckily ,my camera was waterproof.and I did not have an auto lifejacket on
This fish gave me enough points to win the club championship league.

Jim

Did the same thing last week Jim, on the Wharfe at Bolton Abbey.
After putting your hands out onto the water to stop yourself, the first thing you look for is, has anybody seen me make a complete and utter plonker of myself.
Next if your a smoker you check if the fags got wet.
You have my sympathies.

Jim, I found copious amounts of whisky kept me from catching a nasty chill.
I imagine you already thought of that though.
