Furry friends

I sit on a rock, with one rod in my hand,
The others cast out , and left in the stand,
I wait for the rod tip to dance up and down,
And think how I love this new hobby I’ve found.
But down in a crack, in a place I cant see,
A fat furry friend is looking at me.
He’s watching me bait up, with lug and with mack,
He’s waiting to launch his stealthy attack.

I fish on regardless, ‘cos I’m unaware,
That he has me fixed in his menacing stare.
The sun slowly sinks in the sky for a rest,
Me still unaware of my furry guest.
As night closes in and the fish start to bite,
Its time for the headlamp to give me some light.
At last I’ve a fish!, he’s reeled in and released,
Me still with no clue I’m being watched by this beast!

I cast out again, rag tipped with squid,
And its now at this time that the rat makes his bid,
But I sense something’s wrong, in my peripheral vision
I see that dark shape, it’s a rat on a mission!
Now I love to cast out and pull fish from the sea,
But the sight ...

Went up to Dun Laoghaire yesterday (28/8/2011) as I was going up saw about 8 fishers going back who had all blanked.Wasnt too hopeful at this point but threw in the first cast and no sooner had it hit the water I had a bite... 3 macks.I continued on and was joined by 2 others on the wall, one who caught about 12 and the other who got 8.Decided to pack up at about half three as the wall was getting crowded,had 17 macks to finish with so I was happy.
