Lovely treat taking someone for a couple of hours on a commercial this morning. Dead keen but for the purposes of this post anyway camera shy.
Keen enough to beat me 3-2 and went away with his head buzzing with new ideas.
A double up on a new style for him, the method feeder. They were on it pretty quickly and he played them really well. All mirrors. The smaller one especially really deep colouration.
I did bag a couple in betwen netting duties, on more standard bag tactics and both were commons.
It's quite well managed, i:e not to manicured and in most spots you can't see the next peg and the no keepnet rule means they are pretty well fresh looking still.

Beautiful looking fish, they don’t need to be monsters when they look like that!
ReplyDeleteQuite suprising given the amount of fishing done but I'll take looks over size most of the time...think they may have a small rearing business so they can top up if needed. One of those places where you can just get the rod bent and not have to many long poles or scowling bivvy merchants. I'll go back again anyway, probably one of my commute waters as its just off the road I travel every work day.
DeleteThose two mirrors look like Samurai warriors in fancy armour, come to think of it so do the Commons too.
