Took my two youngest boys fishing on Good Friday to The Oaks, Sessay.

Joshua with one he caught earlier!!!


















Thomas looking like he knows what he is doing.

Joshua used a his new 2nd hand pole that I got off one of the lads from the Total Fishing website (www.total-fishing.com). It is a 14.5m Maver Deliverance pole, which came with 5 top kits. I removed the No.1's from the pole and re-elasticated the No. 2 & 3 Sections. I re-elasticated it with some grey hydro and it seems to be bang on!!





They both fished maggot over Pallatrax Groundbait to start with until the carp showed, then they both switched to pellet over groundbait.










Joshua finished with this fine net of fish, for an estimated 25lb. He caught Ide, Roach, Skimmers, Tench and Carp (Crucians, Mirrors and F1's).








Included in his net was this fine sample. A common carp of about 4lb.

Thomas ended up with about 15lb of carp and tench. His biggest tench was pushing 3lb and his biggest carp was the mirror carp below, which nearly dragged him in.







I didn't fish, I just observed and assisted.

Looks like they had a cool day.
