Brian phoned me asking me if i could make it down the pond , i had to baby sit, but shortly after i joined him, he was fishing away with his intermediate with a white fly with bead chain, whilst i set up with the floater. He was doing much better than i was getting far more bites , then he connected with this beauty!
That was the best his fish of the session as we finished up early as Brian was still to get his dinner.
Turns out i had a guilt free opportunity to return to the pond tonight , armed with the intermediate and a few fresh tied clousers made of my dogs tail hair. The rain didnt seem far away with the sound of thunder in the distance, and sure enough it did arrive but nothing to serious.
A count down of 20 seconds seemed to get to the fishes level most were wee things.
But i did manage a couple of better ones, still the big one eludes me.
Lovely fish guys, such an underrated fish the perch, beats me why that should be. Are there any pike in there ?
ReplyDeleteThanks again Douglas, Surprisingly no pike in there , bet it's just a matter of time though, someone will eventually introduce them.
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a bit of a surprise, I might have to make the trip to fish it, maybe the next time the rain shoppers my trouting
