Did you stand in the one spot all day BoB?
Have you ever tried sniffing black marker pens, when you get bored?

Brilliant fighters BoB, what were you using, apart from a rod?

Fishing line, a reel and a hook with a worm.

I was at the bottom of a pool where they enter it, this one came in and hit right away.
I don't think it would have made any difference what I had been using it was going to hit anyway.

Bring it on!

The good old fashioned way to fish, and the most easiest for beer drinking.
Good on you BoBaroonie.

Is it another sea trout pal, it's very silver?
Looks a bit like a grilse.

There was a debate as to what it was when it was caught, it was a lot browner looking than in the picture.
It turned out to be a Seatrout.
Though it had strange markings, three to two said it was a Seatrout, so that is good enough for me.
It had come straight from the sea I found out later, it still had a sea louse (lice) on it. Just the one hiding behing one of its fins.
I can't understand it colour though, usually they are silver when from the sea and not tinged with brown or red!

Maybe it still had a lot of the brown trout genes (colouring) as they are the same fish anyway, just one goes to sea and the other stays in the river.
