Paul gets a river lump at last!




After a few frustrating trips and the pain of losing a certain twenty recently Paul Houghton landed a lump at last. A super fish of 17lb took his bait just inches from the bank on a live he had retrieved because he thought his other rod had got a run. We are not sure whether that fish was lying there or whether it was the fish that had been harrassing his other rod and had followed his bait in when he retrieved it to put it out of the way. Mark Price and his son had a Jack and i helped out with clearing the jacks which is normally Paul's responsibility with a super little chunky fish which fought like a good double. Mark competed with Gulper's culinery expertise by making a freshly prepared fried turkey baguette sandwich which really hit the spot.
