    Great afternoon swinging wooly buggers, hooked 9, landed 5....released 2 beauties around the 6lb mark and kept 3 ranging from 3 - 4.5lbs
    Had the pleasure of sharing the pool with an older Ozzy gentlemen out on a fishing holiday, I tried for an hour but just couldnt get him onto a fish dont think I'd make a very good guide
