The eels quite like a caster on the irrigation pond and this bugger liked 3. I thought I'd weigh it and it was a rather nice 1.03. It spent some time trying to dig it's tail in the marginal clay.
Didn't set the world on fire but the best of the other bunch were this chunky hybrid and a skimmer. Both went well on the light waggler gear.
Plaintive cuckoo and a sandpiper as well. And some lovely warm sun..

Hello mate- sounds like an interesting little pool... Wouldn't mind more of a go at the eels, this summer... G
ReplyDeleteOught to as well Gareth. Dyl's yer man for them.
DeleteLove catching decent size eels, not so much the little snotty bootlaces though. Theres a few local waters near me with some nice ones resident apparently, but i havnt tried for them yet. Something else to put on the 'things to do' list i guess...
