On Oak pool at white door, cast out with my new rod -my sons old one. A bit too much weight caught a branch couldn’t get it out pull all ways, then I thought pull the line by hand save breaking the rod. Yes you guessed top snapped off

Tackle up again and nothing, the odd bite but too slow as usual

Then I cast out and wrap round the hanging float

Tackle up again.....getting good at that!! but very little action.
My sons grass carp come back to say hello we’ve never seen one before and he catches 2in 2 visits.
With an hour to go before home time I got a nice skimmer, we both tried to get the winning fish in our own little match, but no joy.
So a mixed bag and a trip to Terry’s Tackle for a repair job.
