Default Last trips before school

WELL HAD ZANDEE BACK OUT FOR TWO MORE TRIPS BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS AGAIN...

FIRST UP, WAS HIS FAVOURITE TROUT FISHERY, BANGOUR!!!

AND BOY DID IT FISH WELL, HE LANDED 10 FISH UP TO 6LB AND MISSED & LOSSED MANY MORE INCLUDING A NICE LOW DOUBLE, THAT CHARGED UP AND DOWN JUST IN FRONT OF THE PLATFORM, BEFORE SNAPPING HIS WEE SIZE 16 BUZZER OF THE CAST...

CHECK HIM FIGHTING THIS 4LB BANGOUR BLUE...

BANGOUR REALLY FISHED WELL FOR US AND HAS BEEN A VERY LUCKY
PLACE FOR ZANDER, THAT MUST BE WHY HE LOVES IT HERE SO MUCH...



DAY 2:

ALL YEAR HE HAS BEING ASKING ME IF I COULD TAKE HIM ROACH FISHING, SO I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A NICE WAY TO END THE SUMMER HOLIDAYS AND FINISH UP WITH A ROACH TRIP...

SO A QUICK PHONE CALL WAS IN ORDER TO MY GOOD FRIEND STUPIKE AND IN A FLASH HE HAD US SORTED OUT WITH A AWESOME DAYS FISHING AHEAD...

ZANDEE BOY, EASILY HAD 30 ODD ROACH PLUS 4 PEARCH AND 12 PIKE, SO WHAT A INCREDIBLE WAY FOR HIM TO FINISH UP HIS SCHOOL HOLIDAYS...

SOME SHOTS OF OUR DAY...

JUST STARTING OUT, THIS IS HIM CHILLING BEFORE A FANTASTIC DAYS FISHING...

I MUST ADMIT, ONE OF HIS LAST ROACH OF THE DAY, HE HOOKED AND LANDED, WAS A REAL STUNNER ABOUT 3/4 TO 1LB THE ONLY BIG ONE OF THE DAY AND I MADE A PURE C*NT OF IT AND DROPPED IT BACK IN THE WATER TRYING TO GET A PIC, BOY WAS HE GUTTED...

AND SOME LOVELY WEE PERCH...

BUT YOU KNOW, HOW WE ALWAYS LEAVE THE BEST TO LAST...

I FIRED OUT A FLOAT ROD WITH A SMALL BAIT ON IT, ONLY HOPING FOR SOME WEE JACKS TO GIVE HIM A BIT MORE EXTEXCITEMENT...

BUT AS WE WERE WATCHING THE FLOAT, IT TOOK A DIP THEN SHOT OFF, I HIT IT, THEN GAVE ZANDEE THE ROD BUT THIS FISH MOTORED OFF AND I HAD TO GRAB HIM. NOT AGAIN LOL

HIS 10LB 3OZ PIKE...


AND IT'S FISH "OOOOOOONNNNNNN". LOL

Great report and photos, sounds like an outstanding couple of days for you both! I don't think a boy could look happier than Zandee in those photos.
Congratulations to you both
