Fishing With Tom

Had a couple of hours at Whitehaven yesterday evening over high water and had the great pleasure of fishing next to Tom Whitehead who fishes for the England Team
He was there having a practice for a match on Monday







We had a great banter, lots of laughs and he gave me some very useful tips too aswell as some squid to tip my baits off

By the time I packed up I was only just behind him on the fish count..... I had 7 and Tom had caught well over 50
A real pro and a gentlemen too who certainly didn't need any practice

Here's some of my catch











Then I went to Drigg this afternoon and totally blanked

Nice report owdddd next time show him how it's done

Well done Dave. Did you tell him about your beads?

Well done pal bet tom didn't know he was

Well done Dave and it was good of you to let him win it will be good for his confidence for his next match
