1 good sewin in 3 nights fishing!

Rod and I went fishing on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Thursday was pretty much a right off because of heavy rain which started just as we about start fishing around 10.00 pm. We abandoned ship soon afterwards with Rod not having cast a line even!

Friday was a lovely night and I caught a 9lb sewin which fought like hell. I managed to return the fish successfully! There were however a number of fish on the move and Rod heard some really big lumps splashing in the runs. Saturday night was dead every where despite being a reasonable night weather wise. We gave up at about 3.00 am with not so much as a pull.

John loses a good fish before the heavens open!

John called me today to say that he fished on Thursday and Friday nights. Thursday night he had a good pull despite the water not being very clear. Then Friday night everything looked really good - warm with clear water! He lost a good fish early on but unfortunately the heavens then opened and the rain set in for the night. That is often the way things go. Bad luck John!
