Mayfly TroutHere's a trout I took on Saturday from the beer garden of the Mayfly pub!!! Try to stop a brownie splashing about so that no one else in the beer garden knows what you are doing. Taken using a size 1 hook on a handline using bread!!
It weighed 3lb 2oz.

The Mayfly's near Andover. There were people evrywhere, I like a challenge!!!! Truth is I said I was going to pull one out before I'd really thought about it and because I'd gobbed off I had to do it so I didn't look like a mug. I had no priest with me and had to use an ashtray and my knife!!!

That's a fine one, and made all the sweeter by yanking it from forbidden waters. I'd love to pull that one off myself!!

We used to drink there when i was at college. I caught one once on a handline with a filter tip on the hook. Some old geezer come upto us and asked how much it cost to fish a day there with a knowing grin on his face.
Ive done a night session on the stretch the other side of the bridge aswell. Got loads of grayling and brownies.
