27th April, Star Carr Lakes

I met Dom down at the lake after finishing work; he was already fishing in a boat when I arrived. The weather was quite cold and windy, so to fish from the shelter of the shore seemed the best option to me.

I caught 2 rainbows on a damsel and orange wooly buzzer. Dom also caught a trout, but he actually got it without even looking at the water: he was untangling his rod when the hapless trout ate his fly!
