That was a good day with bbq as well.
Yes I do still catch trees sometimes but not often.Paula was using a pole here which negates having to cast.

Glad you're getting back to it. Matches used be a weekly thing for me in my teens and early 20s but then tailed off for various reasons. Fortunately though I always looked after the kit and my mum kept it for me in her garage for years and so was still in perfect condition after 20+ years in storage.

I've taken my son a few times in the past year and he seems to enjoy it. We even had a couple of sessions as a small fishery in Dorset during the summer. At the risk of slightly hijacking your thread below is pic of a small common I manage to land on the second visit - and I only had a 1lb hook length too......

Cheers Andrew:smiling3:.
That is a nice catch especially on a 1lb hook length.
Here are a few I caught many years ago.The Ghost carp was about 14lb.

Sorry for the late response Ralph.
Great to read you're getting sorted.

Now down to more important matters....My missus wants Paula's wellies!

...so watch out next time you both go fishing. You never know just what lurks in the bushes!

Ralph hope you have a happy and enjoyable day. :thumb2:
