Well done Robbie, I used to love getting up early to fish but now I've got 78 year old eyes and I think my knees, hip and back are at least 10 years older. I still wake up early, my mind wants me to go fishing but my body doesn't so I go fishing via good folk like you, take care, Norfolk, UK, Ray

Dad gets a 37, dads girl gets a 36 and I get a 34 but the funniest thing is: my silver yella (it was a yella yes 😅) was soo silvery that I’m like; I’ve never seen a yella look like that. I think it’s because I got the yella around sand. Super fun, great feed. Do you also have a catch and cook yella planned?
