Couple of sessions last week.
On Monday it was Waaaak Baines, who turned up at the river fully laden with his entire collection of fishing gear. We were planning to have a rove, so Waaak decided to bring, not one, not two, but three rods. Ideal if you've got a sherpa or two, but not if you're a sixty two year old big'un.
Waaak had two or three chances of a chub, but unfortunately luck was not on his side.
I stuck to the float and endlessly trotted all afternoon for just two bites, which luckily I converted into two modest chub.
Tuesday and it was a visit from Barry the Mullet Man, who was after his first chub for twenty five years.
I didn't fish for a change, I just ghillied and baited the swims.
First chuck Barry had an absolute corker, a really short, chunky fish of 4lb 3oz. As you'd expect, he was chuffed.
He ended the day with three nice chub, so a really good result.
Great to see and fish with mates.
