Hello everyone, thought i`d give wee description of my first days fishing in years. Twas easter monday on loch glow, 7 pound ticket, supossedly stocked with rainbows.
So first of all tried bait(powerbait maggots) off the bottom, changed to float with same said bait, changed again to spinning all within a hour and a half, kept on spinning for the rest of the day and blanked!
Not really bothered about the blank as the loch was very busy according to my mate who has fished it quite alot, and we only saw 6 fish caught.5 by one bloke and his young son, on the fly. Well it was a sunny but windy day and i ended up gettin sunburnt. I think thats the fist time i have ever been burnt on easter weekend.
So all in all very good to get out, i`ve definately lost some instinct, well a lot to be honest, but 7 pound well spent and i wouldve stayed for dusk but had prior plans.
