.......Rib Valley Ware - 06.04.11

Fishing with Wes again at Ware. Good to see the lad. We seem to get along OK even bearing in mid the age gap. The silly sod paid for a ticket for me as he obviously noted my dob from one of the forums! We met at around ten o'clock and proceeded to fish the lake which was very calm and flat and bearing in mind the temperature had risen to 24C by lunchtime it was hardly surprising. There was some cloud and a light ripple away from the margins.

I managed to hook one at the top end (that is to the right of the rod tip) but it slipped the hook at the net. The fish took a white lure with dumbell eyes which I found in the trees. Wes topped up his box of flies with six buzzers found on different trees - mind you he can reach them!



Wes lost his 'beaney' (pic of his new hat prior to fly finds today!) but a small price to pay for the buzzer patterns he collected perhaps.
A bizarre sign has appeared since we last went to Ware fishery - perhaps to deter some discarding their first fish within the grounds.


Finally a picture of the River Rib running along side the Fishery. Wes who is a gem at spotting fish which may have something to do with his height spied six chub before I had even noticed one!
