Why do you never have a camera when you need one :-)

It was that long ago Box Brownies were far too expensive and getting the
fish to stay still that long never worked.

My second hobby is photography and I always get the best shots when the
camera is missing. I had a kingfisher fly by the other day and although I
had thee camera the bird jsut speeded up the closer the camea got to the
eye. SAme in Zoo's, every bloody animal tunrns it's back to me as I
approach. These is a theme me thinks.




Going again next Friday.

If you have a similar session allow yourself to be heard muttering that
all
those **** carp keep getting in the way of your roach fishing.

I would have to shout with all the noise they were making. I will certainly
make a lot more show of the catch, say weight each one shouting the size as
I put them back. It has been suggested I enter their competition which would
be interesting but I want to enjoy my fishing.



Time will tell
and at £3 for a 140g packet ( enough for a three or four sessions with
light
feeding ) it is not too bad.

- that works out about 21k ukp per ton - or to put it another way, he's
charging you three quid for about 4p worth (in bulk) of pellets...

Fyi: With about 4p worth of bread this morning I took 18 fish in just
under
two hours, eight of which I kept for eating (slightly OT as I wasn't
coarse
fishing) - four of us will eat one each tonight and the others will be
frozen for another day.


Got to be the cost of the oils used to keep them soft, I took a look and
they smell horrid.

So you had a few trout on bread then, not tasted fresh trout for years and
the farmed ones really do live up the joke as they taste so muddy.
