Lee has been unwell recently due to job stress leading to agoraphobia, so we got him home to sort him out. After a spell in the garden, we decided it was time to fish up the road at Darracott reservoir.
We had our usual grudge match for a Mars bar. The first match he won catching nearly as many silver fish as me, but he also used Spam as loose feed catching a couple of double figure carp too (which I do try and avoid).

The next time he beat me again on silver fish, but I finally managed a modicum of revenge in the third session catching a much better stamp of roach in another silver fish match.


The result was his equilibrium was much improved from being outdoors next to the water, even an stillwater overstocked with carp.
