Shocked Surprised and delighted

Had some free time today so i decided to give a quick trip to Fenit Pier to get an hour or two fishing at the high tide.

As i have said in an earlier message i am still learning the ropes so keep this in mind as you read what happened to me today!!!!!

I set up and cast out a Wishbone Rig with Mackeral Bait, it was during the cast that i realised that my Leader Knot had given way

Well Pi***d off but not one to give up i pulled in the rest of the line and placed another wishbone rig on and got back into the water as soon as possible.

After about ten mins i noticed the top of the rod giving a strange quiver and after a min or two i decided to reel it in.
As i got my rig out of the water in noticed that my leader i lost earlier was attached to the weight, so i started to pull this in by hand.

Not only did i get my rig and weight back but a nice flounder was attached to the old rig as well.

Shocked was not the word, but i was delighted because it was my only catch of the day.

the saying, if ya fell in the liffey you,d come out smelling of roses comes to mind keep at it ,if your not in you can,t win!!

the same happened to fintan yesterday, but as it was a comp his dab couldnt count, how sick would you br

fair play to ya steve, keep at it mate

yars ago i was fishing a spot and as it was snaggy lost a few tracces. Fished it a week later and reeled in one of my traces with the head of a decent codling on it.

Nice one getting the rig back with the added bonus of a fish

If you found a pair of underwear at the side of the road there would be a good looking woman in them

nice one steveoel ya must have the god's looking down on ya
