Glenlowren top dam

Date: 6 November 2016
Weather: Fine 24
Crew: Toon and Jax
Target Fish: Trout
Bait: Worms
Catch: 1 massive rainbow
Report: Bought Jax his first fishing rod, so had to christen it. Went to the farm in search of trout. 

Got the big pitch fork out and drove it into the ground in search of some worms. After about 10 good ones we headed to the top dam to cast out a line. Throw some rolled up bread balls in the water as berley, and after 15 minutes a monster trout walloped the worms. Float went under and we pulled up, to which "fish on" occurred. A tremendous fight for Jax, with the trout literally jumping out of the water 10 times about a meter in the air every time!! I coulnt believe it. The trout gave some good runs by the pier, but we managed to miss him snagging it. Then as it tired we couldnt bring it to the bank to land it as it was overgrown with grasses, i had to pull it onto the pier (no net) and just before i could get a hand to it, he broke off. He got away, but he was the biggest trout i have seen! This dam is stocked with monsters!
Report: 8/10
