Default Toms Day out with CJ.

Tom ,my 9yr old son, and i had a day out at Avington Fishery,with Charles Jardine.A great day was had,despite the wind.Learnt alot, and Charles along with Clive White,a few fish were caught.Alas i only managed 1 for 4lb,but Tom had 2 for 4.8lb and his now PB,6lb.which i have heard about ever since (1 1/2 hr journey home)
Small price for young enthusiasm i spose.So with this new fly chucking bug caught,this is gonna cost me.....Click the image to open in full size.

And he's not going to let his dad forget it either, by the sounds of things.

I can take the defeat,
Its the little comments like,
"Do you need a hand lifting the cool box,with my fish in it" or
"Dad this chopping board isnt big enough to gut and fillet my fish"


I dont know where he gets this competitive streak from??
But next time in gonna beat him.

I AM ,I AM .........
