Easterweekend in LA

Recommended Posts

I went a bit further south than LA due to the lack of accomodation. It would be an understatement to say we did well so I dont think the fish were preoccupied with spawning. 3 anglers, two rods for two days for 18 fish. It was a dream come true. There was a lot of tiddlers ( comparatively) but we all managed a 100+ fish and the best fish was 164 lb.

 

Norm if you want a report and pics you will have to bribe me :rolleyes:

 

Cheers

Well, sounds like I'm last home!

Although the fishing was pants, still had a great weekend with lots of old and new faces!

 

When Davy found out that I was after a Short Spined Sea Scorpion, he took me just outside the loch, gave me a rig which I baited with ragworm, called the start of the drift and lo and behold, I must have dropped the rig on it's head :thumbs: . Off to do a tick in the species book and do a recount.......will sort throuth my pics too to see if there are any worth posting!

That just about covers the fishing side of it. Will be posting up some of our lighter moments in a day or so. There are a few classic moments capured on camera. I am sure we will all have a giggle.

 

Thanks once again to the whole squad. I had a truly great time . I know its great to catch fish but friendship and good banter also mean a lot :clap2:

Hey, i was quite happy bashing poor cods after what had been a disasterous day on everything else :D

 

Highlight for me was playing darts with Snatcher, Linda, and the darts master that is Blindog - awesome criak!

 

Good meeting new people, hopefully the fishing is better next time.

 

Snatcher ill send you PM Re: Sandeels mate - they are outstanding :thumbs:
