Hi

Hi Sorry its been a while since i posted anything on the blogg it's down to making time to do it to be honest plus you need to have something to put in it. Since i came back from France the bad luck continues lol A few weeks ago the weather took a change for a couple of days when it started to rain with the change in conditions it was a good time to go to MK for an evening session. I rushed home from work had a bite to eat and a quick bath and was on the bank within an hour. To make things a lot better as well i was the only one there. Standing in the rain waiting for some thing to show it was not long so set up the rods and put 2 rods nicely on the spots one about 40 yards and the other a bit further out at a round 60 yards. It did look good with no wind and a flat clam water
i new i was going to have one before the end of the night. The rain started to get more heavy at 21.15pm So with time running out i started to put my stuff away laying the rods on the grass at 21.35pm the right hand reel started to peel line i was in and after a nice slow plodding sort of fight the mirror was in the net.
It was an old friend of mine it was the last fish i had out of MK last year and it was my 1st fish of this year how mad is that!! I was excited to get this one on the scale's as i was told that he had been out 2 weeks before at 31-12 which would have been my first one past 30lb plus To my dismay it went on the scales at 30-08 o well i was still over the moon another 30lb fish under my belt and made the effort of getting soaking wet all worth it.
The parrot at 30-08

Since that fish things have not been going that well on my syndicate i have not had a fish out of there since the 9th may. Its a bit harder this year with the weed being so aggressive But we are going to plod on and try and get something that i have never had before and that's a linear. The pursuit of one has started.
Till next time thanks for taking time out to read this.
