johnrussell84 2,832 Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Evening guys just back from a rather amusing little night down the local river. Took my oldest boy down an my mate, wee mans ten an fishing daft, they had there rods sett an trying for the salmon, anyways an hour or so passed an nothing then bumped into my uncle who had jus landed a salmon on the fly an gifted it to my wee guy, I've never really been into fishing poached the odd dam but stick to the mutts. Just as 8pm was nearing a said to my mate heard a boy got one on a yellow flyin c shld try that which he did still nothing he has a wee starter reel so I asked for a wee go and third cast in wallop right at my feet, his line was makin tining noises his rod real bent managed to figure out his drag my uncle heard me shout for the net and came back up river, after five mins I landed a 10 pun 10 male salmon my mate fell in marsh tryin to grab the wee net had my whole body goin with excitement an fear with such a small reel. I know ur mind not sound amusing but to watch my mate fish for three hours an then have a quick go watch him fall and call me all the jammy sods under the sun what an end to day 2 Quote Link to post

neil cooney 10,416 Posted August 6, 2015 Report Share Posted August 6, 2015 That's fishin' for you. I know of a similar story only it was a large pike and the person who took over the rod was a woman. 1 Quote Link to post
