    Report on-board Galloper

    It was lovely to see Jon and the lads out for their first time this year. The lads opted to target hounds with a chance of other stuff in some of the glorious weather we have experienced lately. Although we had hounds all day long it took me a while to find the better numbers as they weren't where I'd left them last time! The lads are kind enough to encourage me to fish with them. I don't often have time or room nowadays with a busy boat. I managed to luck out a decent bass which went just shy of 6lbs, thanks for netting it Alan. Unfortunately I was a bit slow with the net and Alan lost one a bit smaller than mine later on. I also had another chase up a pouting I reeled in later. Typically it ignored the pouting Jon already had out for bass ��.
    The hound fish improved throughout the day and I struggled to drag the lads away from them in the end. I clocked around 40 hounds though there were probably more caught and I was a bit preoccupied with fishing and unhooking ect.
    Whatever we caught it was a great day with lots of sport and always nice to see the lads.
