Tiercel 6,986 Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Is that a springer that has been in since spring Mik? He seems well advanced in breeding condition is why I ask. My motto is, if you don't know ask someone who does. TC Quote Link to post
MIK 4,755 Posted August 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 I would say so he has been in for a long time and was only a mile from the sea and a long way from the breeding reds..I would of loved to have hooked him when he was silver .... 1 Quote Link to post

I bet you was over the moon once your banked it I was over the moon and a bit of relief as this fish was in charge with the little switch rod ....if I had hooked it in the spring it would of gave a better amount of itself Quote Link to post
