The latest video from Tel on his exploits on the Thames. No one tells a story like Tel, I could listen to him read the shipping forecast and not get bored! Very interesting revaluation about Nick Huellers 50lb'er that was reputedly ottered, perhaps it wasn't after all (or at least when it was alive.)
It sure is some place. There are 3 or 4 absolute donkeys in there. I'd love for just one to get caught so the doubters know for a fact they are in there.
And I'd hazard a guess that the fish you lost, the couple I lost and other fish that I know have been lost are more than likely these fish that are doing it.
Its not for everyone but I loved it on there-just wish I’d had the money at the time to renew my Gold ticket. Biggest I had was 38 too. Like you I was flat rodded once in Peg 1; lost it to a hookpull, partially opened a Drennan Conti Size 4😳. Saw an absolute chunk in front of Peg 3 whilst out in the boat-thought it was a log until I drifted over and it grew fins and waddled off-I very nearly fell in!
