lol then the rest of the lads came frist time to meet and fish with these lads, john, Philip, Peter, and these lads were good anglers some had thier on boats and had fished all over the place so looking forward
so we left 6.15am got to the spot about 7.15am just as it was getting bright so lines out and wasn't long we hitting into fish, dogs 1st then Philip pulled in the 1st spur a small one then Philip again got a knock on his rod and as he was into a good fish and with the strong tide and his rod tip getting knocked i was looking forward to see what size cause we all knew the fight he was giving philip then his head showed it was a cracker of a spurdog got it on broad boat and weight the fish it was 13lbs 10ozs his 1st specismen well done philip then he got 2 more we where all looking at him saying come on whats the story tell us what's the secret,
