I'll let you know how I get on...

Well I'm not sure how much fun I had...but I wasn't disgraced (or at least I
wasn't alone in disgrace ;o)

10 seniors in the end, and 4 young lads who had their own junior section.

I was first to draw my peg being the only 'lady' there...

Remembering my brother and other fishing freaks always going on about the
direction of the wind it was apparently a good thing to get this peg, so I
sat for 5 hours with the wind very firmly in my face...gusting to gale force
at times...all good fun so I'm told ;o)

So, how did I get on? Well...I didn't catch a thing....but neither did 12 of
the other 'competitors'...the winner was the only guy to land anything, and
he won with a whopping bag of 6 or so tiny rudd.

Now seeing as the lake is stocked by persons close to me, we all know its
not a fact of having no fish...if anything its slightly overstocked, with
some good sized specimens too...who gave me a lovely show at times during
the day, one carp who rolled on the surface a few times near me was lovely
to see.
....as to why the fish all decided not to feed yesterday is anyone's guess
;o)
