Nice work flappy??.

Not caught a decent one since the mid 80s fishing a few miles out at Pan Sands. Caught it on an irritable great ragworm. That ragworm must have given the fish some grief because it hardly put up a fight at all and weighed in at ten and a half pounds. I seem to remember a Chinaman on the slipway...

Natural hunter-gatherer instinct. I used to eat many of the fresh water fish I caught back in the forties and fifties. ?

Great effort Stormtrooper. They are plenty out there hiding in the weed it seems, but a certain level of skill is needed to winkle them out. Wish I had it, and the energy.?

Great read Tow-rag. I dream about hooking mackerel again.?
