ok first of all i have to say i think dad is slowly coming around to letting me take out gw he let me bring her into pyc on my own with nohelp and it all went very smoothly.
headed out of poole for a couple of hours last night to try for bass, tope anything to put a bend in the rod.
headed to the banks using feathers to try and catch a bass which had worked for humphrey earlier in the day but no luck.
put the pick in hope of a tope or conger had so many mackeral the bucket was over flowing. had plenty of dogs and half dozen pack tope good fun even if small.
just as we were packing up to come home my rod went mental and before i new it my rod was bent over double and something on the over end wasnt very happy dad was convinced it was an eel and i dont think it was very small because everytime i got it away from the bottom it took all the line off again it must have been pretty big and this was on a 30lb rod .
just as i brought in some line ping the hook comes out GUTTED
still a nice night back in bed by 1am
