Biggish catfish - open water. All carp caught in margins. Thanks for a lovely week, beautiful weather - hot! (Not so good for the fish!) Meals on Reels: really enjoyed thebreakfast baguette, but if you have a greedy husband like mine you'll need two!!! Baby ducks - between Poplars and Birch love bread! (They're so cute!) |
