Aw poor ickle pike. They're harmless creatures

I now have an image in my mind of you wrestling down a 40lb pike and trying to "dispatch" it with a wee beginners priest

believe me Muse, my priest really does administer the "last rites" :lol:, it's a home made Heath Robinson affair that consists of 8 inch solid brass with a 1 inch diameter, joined to a 10inch piece of blue alkathene pipe, one tap and if it swam, it swimmeth no more

Was out on the fly today for a couple of hourd, first time this year. 3 of them managed to escape and get off the hook. Managed to at least land one though. Was a really strong fighter and kept jumping, one of the best fights for a long time despite his size.

Cheers Was down at Loganlea Reservoir. Nice place and trout to 20lbs! but the banks are quite high which coupled with a release in the water and no wading rule made it a bit tricky... As you can see I generally just resort to netting them lol. My wee legs canny cope. Your really selling this Danskine loch to me mind! £50 a year to catch nothing lol. Headed to Duddingston last week but was raining heavy by the time I got there so I didn't bother. Not got a bivvy yet

 

[doug boardley]

Nice trout Ryan, pound for pound I don't think you can beat trout for sport

 

[Muse2k8]

Nice trout Ryan, pound for pound I don't think you can beat trout for sport

Cheers Doug. Definitely great fun especially when they go hurtling off and jumping in the air
