They simply didn't know they were hooked and stayed pressed onto the bottom not feeling the pressure of the rodtop. I happens quite a lot in my experience in floodwater. Graham Graham Elliott

Picture doesn't really do it justice (haven't mastered self photography yet and very rarely take photos): Very happy Crooky Ian Crook (Crooky)

Was this on the FAS stretch or somewhere else? SE very high this morning at 09:00 with water just about to cascade over the banks, by 16:00 it had dropped about 6 inches and on the way down. Fields very very waterlogged and hard work in places even around the edges. Not many about today. cheers John Last Edited By: John Glover 12/01/08 20:16. Edited 1 times.

I had some thoughts along those lines but the swim was relatively slow + I fish with fairly short links. ( Haven't forgotten our 'date' but too busy at the 'mo!) Congratulations on a super fish Ian - I would also like to know if it was on a FAS stretch? Hope to be out again tommorrow afternoon - is it likely to be within its banks? Regards Paul.
