Date - 17th Feb, 07
Time - 18:00- 19:00
Tide - ebbing
Weather - Dry, not too cold, very clear under the stars(for the last part)
Terrain - river mouth/further back on estuary
Line used - Inter
Fly used - Dna Clousers,
Result - 1 1/2 coalie

woohoo. my first SWFF fish, granted it was only a small one but it was still great, considering it was on my first cast and also caught on the first clouser i have ever tied, a blue and white one with some pearl lureflash!
Had a few knocks after this but it got too dark so we left!
Thought this was some sort of sign so i was out today as well for an hour or two, but no joy. though my girlfriend managed to catch what looked like the same fish in the same spot, on a abu krill!
Roll on the summer!

Well done ts1500 at the end of the day catching any size of fish on the SWFF gear lets us know we're doing something right(roll on mackerel season) :oops: :lol:

Better to understand a little than to misunderstand a lot.
