    The weather was too nice today to be stuck behind a desk so I gave myself the afternoon off.

    Took me to the backing (nearly). These fish are in great nick. I'm starting to like the Radian.

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Nice fish kj, but if you used the Sage 'one' he wouldn't have gotten anywhere close to the backing with all that extra lifting power over what the floppy 'Radian' has.

    Tough day at the other office had me gib stopping the kitchen but I did a runner and fished the afternoon. The winter fishing certainly slows in the lower reaches but I was still able to pick up this one maiden hen. I’d given up for the day but a rise on the walk out, to what I think was a few mayfly spinners gave her away. First cast success made for a better days fishing as I had conceded to being skunked in my fishing diary.

    The youngest daughter owned me today. She picked up a good Jack at around 2.0kg. To add insult I caught a fit but small hen next and I tripped on something in the water. I fell over in the lake tearing the knee in my waders (plus my pants and knee) so was soaked.
    Paige horsed the fish in like she was in the chair on a game boat fishing for marlin.
