Fishing goes wrong

No, seriously Liam. Its a good question and I guess we are all guilty of occasionally forgetting things!

 

I recently forgot to take a pod with me, and where I was fishing it was impossible to use banksticks!

 

forgot my chair a few times too - that can make for an uncomfortable session!

What he hasn't told you is that he whinged all day as he had to go to Grandads to help me with the garden, then he nagged me to get ready to go fishing :rolleyes:

 

He was spinning, more up the trees than in the lake when he decorated the tree with his spinner, well christmas is coming I suppose :rolleyes: He then told me he had no spares :rolleyes:

 

Set your float rod up, said I, the rest you know, was I mad, nooooooooo :mad: :mad: :mad:

 

oh, I do love the schools hols :rolleyes:

 

Then to top it all, I had fogotten my cup so had to cut up a plastic water bottle to drink my tea out of, and we blanked!!!!!!!

Lyn, let him know that helping in the garden is a sure-fire way of catching worms, and worms are the finest bait for ALL fish! You never blank with worms. That should ensure that his Grandads garden is dug to about 18 inches on a weekly basis.

Ah Liam7 but consider:

 

worms from garden = £0

 

maggots from shop = £some

 

poking fun at Mum = maybe no cash when you need it for bait so you may be in a better position to afford worms than maggots at some point.

Newt you would not believe the worms at Dad's Big juicy lob worms in the garden at the tackle shop they are 12pence each His compost bin is a breeding ground for the smaller ones, it is heaving with them.

 

The other thing Liam fails to mention is that I am always so busy unhooking his fish, sorting out tangles etc that I don't get much chance to fish myself lol He is getting good at unhooking his own fish now though.

Lyn, take Liam shark fishing one day. At his age, he should last for about 2-3 takes.... :D
