Warning!

This weekend the Salmo Hornet 4f in Hot perch colour was deadly, I caught small-scale and large-scale yellowfish as well as bass and Barble on this lure but the biggest catch this weekend on this lure was myself. After Bernard and his son Rudolph left, Mervan and me went out again and we forgot our landing net, Merv hooked a 2kg+ Large scale yellow and I had to land it with my bare hands, after a very long fight when I thought the fish was secure in my hands (still in the water) it made a desperate attempt to get away and the salmo got stuck on my arm and the fish tore loose. I used pliers to press the barbs through my flesh to be able to cut off the barbs- and then managed to pull it out......

note to self: remember your friggin landing net

Ja en dit gee natuurlik nuwe betekenis aan die ou cliché van die lures vang die hengelaars en nie die vis nie. LOL hahaha

Ek se mos party mense word dadelik gestraf :-D

Toe maar, dieselfde het met my gebeur, ook met 'n geelvis. Behalwe ek het die hoeke in my hand gekry en nie ek of die geelvis kon los kom nie (ek haak ten minste my vis oordentlik :-D ) en hy wou net nie stil le nie. Ons is maar lekker pieperig ne'.

Dit kom daarvan as jy nie tevrede is om soos al die ander mense in die dam te hengel nie en dan tussen die rotse in gaan rond klouter soos 'n babejaan agter geelvis aan in die stroom.
