Chilling With The Evening Chorus. Carp On The Centerpin.

 Morning all,

I had a l and an hour & a half window to wet a line this week and proptly took it.

I was making a rig for a pal, Dan, returning to fishing after a long lay off.

We were off to the local commercial to try and squeeze a few small carp out before the light faded.

Both of us were fishing off the rid tip or in the margins on paste.

This will be the first time Dan has fished on his own in the UK for years so my fingures and toes were well and truely crossed for him.

We didnt have to wait long. I was in first with Dan close behind me.






All caught on the dibbers, on the deck an later up in the water.



Should be back on next week.
Tight lines everyone.

TTFN

Morning all, Still stocking up on "Inserted Sticks" for silver fishing on the rivers. These three are constructed of balsa, carbon and wooden tips for slow running, deeper rivers. Paints used are slate grey, white and fluorescent orange with grey, pale blue, black and blush gold threads. The average weight capacity if the floats is approximately 10-12 no 4s or 2g.
