Report:me and krang headed off to check a favourite rock mark of mine,where myself and a couple of the buddies had a great day out fishing a couple of years ago,when big ballans where biting,one of the lads landed five ballans that day all over 4 lbs,even pulled in two at a time at one stage,but lady luck shone on me landing me a 7lbs'r..didnt kno much about claiming specimens at the time,so like an indian i've been watchin the moon,waiting for a match...no such luck on the big uns tho,had a great little fight off a 3lbs'r,same with krang the 2nd night,i tried it about a month before,only setting a hook once on a little 3 bearded rockling,i think,bout a pound weight,in a 4 hour session.now there are back in force,krang had three ballan last monday and i had two but no specimen weights so far.boo hoo...i'll get em tho :) ps f@#ker of a job resizing these pictures... :evil:
