Yes CC it did look a little skinny. It also had a scar on top plus a wound either side of it's gills (you can see one of them) so I reckon this fella had a
lucky escape from a cormorant

out. About a 15 - 20 minute fight, took nearly as long to get it back safely, had to roll the trousers up and stand in the river with it for about 10
minutes

"Golden Balls" that's what Chad said to me when I asked him to take my latest picture
Did another session on the river last night, arrived a little later than usual but was soon set up in my chosen swim. After about an hour I'm into a fish and to be honest with the fight I thought it was a small barbel but in came another PB
Not the desired species but when these things are over 4 1/2lb they are pretty impressive, and being my 1st 5lber it was very welcome Nothing else for me except for the bats flying into my line regularily making me think I was having a few knocks etc

Just done a short morning session on the river, arrived at the river for 5am and was soon set up in my swim. 1st cast and I was getting
the tap tap tap which I assume were Chub, 2nd cast and before I put the rod on the rest it's looping over......fish on
Coming in at 5lb 12oz a new PB chub for me
Recast and nothing for about an hour then the tap tap tap started again and I was soon in, resulting in another Chub at around the 3 1/2lb mark

well done, judging by the reports inthe angling times it seems like a good river that is on form, well done again.
