Placing Chris in the banker swim I
watched as his jaw hit the floor as I demonstrated where to cast and
if placed on the money just how quick a bite comes as within seconds
the tip rattled and swung round yet although this swim may come
across as easy its what I consider a mans-swim as to find the fish a
long accurate cast is needed, then after hooking a fish the power of
the current coupled with underwater snags and a difficult land means
a hooked fish is far from taken as in the net. Chris finally got his
eye in with the casting and come the end of the day had landed seven
barbel including the biggest of the week at 9lb 1oz along with the
odd chub. Ron was knackered from his earlier session and decided not
to stay for the third night as rain had been forecasted, meaning all
the camping equipment would be wet. It was a wise decision, one that
I also decided against and with everything dry and packed away spent
the night in the van but not before seeing what looked like a
Peregrine Falcon above.
