I haven't been fishing yet but i cant wait to get my rods out first thing Monday morning. My girlfriend wont be happy as it will mean i wont be stopping at hers on Sunday night :( but a man must do what he must do .
i have just been uploading pictures off my camera onto the computer and found a rather good picture of an enormous rainbow trout, with its captor my dad (the trout master)i thought it deserved to be on here for all to see. It was caught on an orange fritz lure just before Christmas from bank house fly fishery ( a truly magical place).
unfortunately the picture doesn't do this fish justice ! We estimated that it was somewhere in the region of 18lb which is the biggest trout I've ever seen on the bank . (let me know what you think ). It was one of about 20 fish my dad land that day ( as usual i was thrashed ! ) this is always the case when fly fishing with my dad as he is quite the trout magnet. In modesty he will say that its just luck and he can hold his own but in reality its unusual for him not to be top rod on the water where ever we go !
anyway back to Monday. I'm going to my local runs water ( shruggs wood ) to test my new boilies :). with the forecast snow i think a fish will be a good result so we shall see.
