i fished it today i was in the corner by the big tree trying to get out of the wind,i started off on the pole at 11m and had one bite after 2 hours so threw a feeder out towards the snag,pellet in a small cage feeder with corn on the hook, first cast and the rod flew round with a nice bream that i lost at the net, same thing next cast again the hook pulled ( i should of stuck a bigger hook than the 16 i was on at this point i know )

a couple of little tench showed and then something big and heavy snagged me in , i gave it a bit of slack and it came out of the snag after 5 minutes only to lose it soon after

some more tench kept me interested untill the rod got dragged off the rod rest and into the water , i had to jump in and wade after it to get it back, the fish was off by the way when i reeled in

oh how the boys laughed i can tell you, why do things like that always happen when theres an audiance

ah well i soon dryed off on the way home, it wasnt a pretty site me in my undies trying to wring my kecks out

Pure class dave ,did anybody get a photo.About ten years ago I was fishing the canal at the Ship Inn with my mate,two other anglers were fishing at the other end of the stretch,when I dropped a section of my pole in the canal ,it sank like a sub straight into the middle.So I stripped off and jumped in anyway I found the section but stood on it while looking.A few days later I bumped into a mate and he told me he'd had a good day on the Ship and that some idiot was swimming in the canal in the middle of December,I didnt have the balls to tell him it was me.
