1030 till 1430
Today was a different trip, there was 3 of us and one was a girl!! This morning I went fishing with Rupert and Martha to Wydon Water in Hexham. I had taken them together before, but it didn't make it past the editor.
We were after the elusive Tench, but caught the common Roach/Rudd - I still can't tell the difference.
We had a 4m whip, Rupes Christmas present rod and reel combo, dead maggots, sweet corn and a picnic!! What more could we need??
After a bit of feeding, it wasn't long till we were getting bites. Martha and I shared the whip, while Rupe did a great job of christening his new rod!! Martha catching the second biggest of the day.
After a few coaching tips to Rupe, which caused a few tears on his part, he was soon casting like a dream. At one point we had a double hook up and with 2 fish in the net, the scene was set for a perfect picture.....
Yeah, that's what happens.
A great few hours, there was time for hugs, tears, sausages and cookies. If anything, the 16 fish (8 each, Rupe verses us 2) got in the way. Unless it had been a Tench, we still want one of those, we will be back.
