I intended to dash home from work today, grab my gear and get a few hours in on the river. However on the way to work this morning the brakes on my car started making a horrendous grating noise so I drove straight to the garage to see if they could sort the problem. An hour and a half later, 4 new discs and pads all round and £350 poorer I was definitely in need of some time by the water.
I'd had a few 2-3lb fish and was 'waking' my crank bait across the surface when this old warrior obliged at 5lb 2oz. It looked like it had been through the wars and whilst not the prettiest of fish it provided a much needed boost. By 8.30 I was being bitten to death by the midges and retreated home to feed myself.
