Well what can I say!
Probably the best day in my years with the Club!
This had to be the
warmest most pleasant day of 2015 to date, several club members were
out on boats or fishing the bank along with several other fishermen
enjoying the brilliant fishing at Colwick on a glorious sunny day.
Why the best, full
bags of fish and many, many more released and fantastic hard fighting
quality fish.
The greatest thrill
to me was to see junior club member Michael join us and reach his
limit with 6 fish weighing a very respectable 12lb 12oz giving him a
well deserved joint 2nd place tied with Roy Henderson for
this outing.
Michael was chuffed
to bits on number three as that was his best total in the short time
he has been fishing, to get to six and beat his fly tying mentors
was icing on the cake! More icing on the cake he caught all his fish
on a fly he tied while practising his tying at home with no
supervision!
Well done to John
Parnham for being overall best bag with 12lb 15oz and Keith Prowting
landing the best fish at 2lb 13oz.
As expected for this
time of year, the majority of fish were taken on Black and Green on a
mixture of lines from floaters down to slow and fast glass. Orange&
black Montanas, buzzers and diawl bachs, orange blobs all featured on
the returns. Highly successful too was a modernised Baby Doll with a
marabou tail. (This was used by a non club member fishing from the
bank.)
I do not have the
total rod average, no doubt Jed will be able to supply in due
course, well over 12 I suspect, see comments on Facebook.
