That happened to me a few weeks ago. I caught a real firm slightly coloured cock fish that unfortunately was a bleeder. A real solid fish that would have normally gone back but there was no way i was releasing it to suffer and die.
It's only the second salmon i have chapped in two years of fishing for them. Both were bleeders.

Reminds me of the dreadful cover of that Crawford Little book with the Nith "turners" caught tinslinging by the Marx Brothers. I saw the cover of that book on Amazon recently - I recognised the two guys as lads I used to fish with occasionally in N Wales. Both moved away I haven't seen them for 20 years. Yes, they did look like the Marx Bros with their tashes. ;D btw, they were both very good flyfishers. |
