Well done grady, it's good to see you out wetting a line again. I'm glad that you where rewarded for your efforts by catching a few fish in the session, nice one.

did you measure those two dabs. a cracking sized double by the looks of things unless you have really small feet?

Right enough Corbs, they look like Cracking Dabs compared to the boot!

specimen weight only 1.32lb. the record is only 2lb 5.5oz! certainly look like at least 1 specimen.
