The alarm was set for 6.30 though I got woken up earlier than that so set about putting socks on cold feet lighting the fire & doing as I was told ,baited the hooks , got the frying pan hot for the pan cakes , it didn't take long for some bites , first one got off then the eldest (7) had one on good and she managed to land it , only needed one more fish for the little person but it didn't happen ,aside from a little grumping we had a cracker time dad and the kids out there doing it that's what its about.

Looks like a great outing with the family Phil, well done. Nothing like good quality time with the young ones.
