back in the game

Great to get back out fishing again, although it feels a wee bit weird having missed so much of the season already.

Anyway Col and I arranged an evening session fly fishing for the Pike on a venue new to us. Things got off to a promising start with Col getting a follow second cast, shortly after landing the first Pike of the evening on a Flash fly, which proved to be the fly of the evening.



Some more follows and missed chances before I got of the mark with  a nice wee  pike.


Third Pike of the evening was an absolute belter for Col weighing 14lb 3 0z.


Final Pike of the evening for me before they seemed to switch off, wish i could tell you that i had an epic battle with it, but once i got her out of the weed she seemed to just hang there like she didn't know what was happening and i was able to slip the net under her, still over the moon when i weighed her 20lb 13oz.



a return trip a day or two later and we never even got a follow, i was a lot colder which might have had something to do with it.
