It was an amazing session and it was totally unexpected!
I would swap sessions with the one you had the other day though 😉.
I won't steel your thunder, but those fish you had were pretty much as good as it gets 👍.
Hey Richard, no, that river runs into the sea eventually.
Funny enough, I did get out today way down on a tidal stretch of the large river and had a amazing session catching chub and a few dace to add to the mix! I had 57 chub from about 2 1/2lb to over 6lb, only guesstimates, nothing weighed...
Thanks for watching it John 🙂.
Yes, the Zepp is a nice smooth reel, and as you say no rattles etc. It has a high set narrow line lay but doesn't suffer from line stick. I have a 4 and a 4 3/4 models and the line pick up on the retrieve is good on them both due to the high set line lay. Nice...
Hey Steve, I know you didn't mislead me bud, so no worries my friend.
Prolly just a pipe dream, but I might get to fish one of those sexy chalk streams eventually lol.
I know you have had some very nice specimens on your river!
Richard, thanks for the very tempting offer to fish, no doubt i'll take you up on that in the future, and we know that offer works both ways bud 🙂👍.
I believe he did, and I think he had quite a few larger specimens.
Did he fish the southern chalk streams ?
Amazes me how the fish grow so large in those small streams/rivers!
For many years i've fancied fishing on one of those lovely looking chalk streams, maybe one day 🙂.
