Pre-Season Fun!

Although i don't usually go Pike Fishing during the summer months i broke my rule to have a day out with Buzz & Tanya, Neil & Debbie on a Staffordshire stillwater. The day started with me arriving at the water early to get the 'Wheely Boat' ready for me Buzz & Tanya which wasn't on the slipway as i expected but moored in the middle of the lake with a couple of hundred hardwood decking planks in it. So i enjoyed some morning excercise transferring the planks to another boat and eventually we went fishing.
Tanya took an early fish followed by a few more during the day. I added one to our boats tally but sadly Buzz blanked although he lost a decent fish. Boat comrades on board 'The Voodoo Ted' fishing vessel Neil and Deb managed 5 fish between them too. So honours even.
That Debbie Seddon; the darling of the 88's and the PAC is clearly not content with her fame in the pike fishing world(limelight hog). When i was un-loading the gear from the wheely boat i noticed she was being interviewed yet again. The friends of this lake have a magazine and surprise surprise Deb is going to star in that now. Grrrrrr!
