Fishing not drinking

What a lovely evening.

There were buzzer hatching, caenis around and loads of sedges fluttering in the sky. The fish were here too and although not going mad they were feeding, well at least for a while. I arrived after a very busy day at work at about half seven and ahhhhhhhhhhh - yes it was very relaxing.

With a few anglers already around i settled into the bay on Duffers with a midge tip, green and red daiwl bachs and a hares ear. They definitely wanted the hares ear on the point and i kept having loads of takes but unfortunately they wouldn't stick. Great sport! I did manage to catch a couple though before the sun set properly and they went quiet.

Mike arrived just after me and managed to talk his way onto the point somehow. Here there were probably the same number of fish but when they took they stuck and he had some great sport with 5 fish in a couple of hours on the daiwl bach and hares ear magic! This is Mike having evicted the guy, then goes and catches one!

A pint in the George afterwards and the day was complete - I must do more of that! Fishing not drinking that is.
