After
all the talk of Badger Drain, Dad was starting to
get very envious; especially when Wink had finally
broken his 16lb PB! Badger Drain would have to wait
however, as there was a certain River we just had to
fish. The River was running off very hard, but due
to it being littered with cattle drinks, we knew
that these would be exceptionally good refuge points
for fish wishing to get out of the direct flow. The
fishing was to be however, a little disappointing,
and after making a late start due to my Nan's 80th
the previous night, we weren't the only ones with
the same idea!
On
speaking with others, it appeared that nothing was
being caught. We decided to walk as far past the
others as possible and make a start further
upstream. After 30 minutes Dad's float ledgered
Sardine was away and a spirited near double was
landed. This was to be the only fish landed however,
and after loosing a decent fish at around 3pm we left
to get back home; not even the great outdoors was
doing anything for my headache! |
