Mixed day today, bought some new floats after that downhill.
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 and float left hanging.
Tackle up again and nothing, the odd bite but too slow as usual
Then I cast out and wrap round the hanging float this time we pull some line off and cut it , move the rod and Tom pulls it out the tree and both floats return, however ones broken.
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.
