I was looking forward to this week as Martin's group were returning for the 5th time, and the boy's have become great friends now. No rig checks and no worries this week, just a great soical and hopefuly a  few fish! All the swims fished  this week ffished well except "Banzais" only taking one fish a 34lb mirror. Tony in "tight squeeze" took 3  30's to 38lb and lost 4. Martin in RB'S took 6 fish to 48-04lb. Dan in the  "Boathouse" had 6  to 46-04lb and dropped 2. Serge in "R1" had 6 fish to 40lbs and dropped 3 and lost 1 in the snags. Hans  in "R2" had 8 fish including 2 40lb+ fish and Steve & Kev in  61 took 16  fish between  them, Kev had a bad start to the week dropping 11 fish, but that's not the record for that swim, that belongs to Jon. Two years ago Jon lost 15 fish in total 4 in the snags and dropped 11. Steve  had the biggest fish from "61" a 43lb Mirror known as the "Animal".  The week ended with 46 fish, 6 x40lb+ and an average of 32-07lbs. But the boys did lose 26 fish between them that's more than half of what they caught! The boy's are looking forward to getting their own back on the fish next year and are having two hits one in May 2015 and one in September 2015, So let's hope they don't loose as many fish next year. I like to thank Martin and Steve and all the boys for a great week and i am already looking forward to May next year. Thanks boys for looking after my fish.
