First of 2008First day fishing this year. Got a 4 hour C&R ticket for Woodford. Weather was bad, but not as bad as was forecast. Wind was perfectly manageable, even for my casting, and although the rain was very heavy it stayed fairly mild. With one or the regulars, Stevie, we had the place to ourselves. We both caught well, I ended the day with 5 fish. 3 came to a white bead head tadploe, one to a white spider and one to a black tadpole with a pink head. Had another fish throw the hook on the black tadpole. All the fish came fairly deep on my slime line with a slow figure of 8 retrieve.

Very pleased Darren. Felt like those nice people at Greys made a rod just for me. I have put a review in the tackle section.
