Hi canadakid. Unfortunately I live 75 miles away, not that that stops me from visiting whenever I can. Steve runs a cracking place there, and Alan is also one of the nicest guy you will meet, along with Steve.
Fishing was a little tricky canadakid, fish weren't showing themselves in any great numbers. Managed to catch 13 for the day, mostly on a claret klinkhammer fished static from a drifting boat. Though a few did fall to a cat's whisker on a fast sinker.
Hooked into one of the big double blues (in excess of 15lb) late in the afternoon, it took 20 yards of backing twice! Finally slipped the hook after about 5 minutes. Gutted!
