Nice Variety

More fun at the local club water (before I start barbel fishing this year).
On the margin pole again and this time I took my grandson Calum now he's off school for 6 weeks. It would be his first taste of fishing with a margin pole.
And boy, did he enjoy it. He caught carp to around 10lb, but it was the variety of species that made it a good day for both of us.
We had skimmer bream to about 2lb, rudd to around 12oz, small golden orfe and ghost carp, and a beautiful fan-tailed common.
Now he can't wait to go again, and just like me he'll be obsessed with margin pole fishing for a while, before the next obsession comes along.
But as long as it's fishing and we're having a good time, what's it matter?
Now it's time for barbel though, for me, but I'll probably still have a few hours each week on the local stillwater - just to keep my hand in......and, because I like it!
