Hi All,
           That was PDQ Iain !!

Iain and I managed a go at Lochter today ,(sorry you had to work Jim ).

It was a surprisingly pleasant day if a bit cold.

Some pics.

One of the two places we could fish.


First blood to me . Excuse the pun. It took a pink bloodworm on a floating line  (did have a pink tungsten bead head though). Very broad fish , we reckoned about 8 pound , but looks smaller in the piccie, as always.


Bye bye.


Then Iain got a fish too. Here he is giving it the butt, and the middle section , and the top section of his Sage two wt. Lovely rod . I want one.


Set for release .


Last knockings. Iain got one more  and I hooked a large ice floe and lost the lot so we packed in.


Very enjoyable , thanks Iain.

Know its late but went out to Lochter on Sunday and fished my Winter league.  Very Cold with not much free water to fish but had a good 3 hrs.  8 fish in total with a large double taken as well.  Fell to the bloodworm on floater.
Least i have had my fix for the week.
