Day 3, Little
Hoople
![]() ![]() ![]() No rain overnight so we chose to
return to Little Hoople. En route Jason - aka the Carp Whisperer - very kindly
took us on the circular road through the newly opened park / campsite. He showed
us his favourite fishing spot - I had time to take a
shot of the boys talking 'tactics'. This huge
area has been closed off since last September, a new road, some
clearing, renovation and bird boxes all make this a stunning place. This morning
the haze created quite a picture and actually hung in the air until well
into the afternoon. After a marvelous breakfast, time to get
cracking.
![]() ![]() ![]() All set and ready to catch, but
a little time to take some cute
photographs
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() A handsome little
boy at eighteen pounds ably watched by our new little
friend who wanted to get in on the action and the
geese
![]() ![]() "I see no ships"
but at least our new friend is back where he should be
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Not
quite as big as yesterday, exceptionally slimy and difficult to hold, but
I'm very chuffed indeed. I can now report -
Tally five all
![]() My
proud mate agreed
![]() ![]() ![]() We were treated to a fly past and left what we are certain will become 'our
special place' Little Hoople
ALL IN ALL A
CRACKING DAY
