ouchthathurt reacted to commonly in March catch report
It makes a change for me to start one!
Started well yesterday morning, got here around 7, saw a few shows, small bag with a few 10mms and pop up combi rigs put out in that direction.
Literally within 5 minutes (whilst I was down the margins putting out a few freebies), my left hand rod had ripped off.
I felt it on, felt a good weight, then the dreaded snag. I just kept tension & bump, it came off.
Dejected I redid the rod and put the kettle on. Just about to pour & the middle ones off.
Good little scrap and lovely little scaled 16lb mirror.
Went a bit quiet, sun was up so tried zigs in a few different spots , moving them about every hour or so. Not even a liner!
As the sun dropped , I thought I'd switch back to bottom baits as I'd already caught and felt more confident for the night.
Nothing through the night and just as I was stirring the left rod was off, happy days.
This one felt a bit heavier, then the line went slack, I wound in faster and found the tension to the fish, it tussled a little bit, but was easily netted.
As I pulled her out I thought this is a good 30 odd, could be a new pb?
Scales topped out at 43 exactly, it is a new pb!
Sent a pic to my mate (who's also on here), turns out to be the big girl of the lake.
I'm absolutely made up

Welcome to my world, had concussion twice last year smashing the back of my head on the car door frame whilst loading the kit. Given myself a perforated ear drum doing it on the last occasion. Spend 3 days on the bank wondering why I felt funny 🙃👎
