\n
the river … well, part of it<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

spent a delightful weekend with great people, attempting to get fish to bite worms before they wiggle off the hook<\/p>\n


\n
the gang was greeted by a lovely herd of calves<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

a lot of beer was consumed, as is customary<\/p>\n

one would not like to meet this majestic fish & apologise for being responsible for its demise in a sober state<\/p>\n


\n
mmmmmmmmmm!!!<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

besides, everything’s more fun when you have a bit of beer in your belly<\/p>\n

so, saturday jodaz catches one<\/p>\n


\n
jodaz looking pro<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

sunday morning siggif catches one<\/p>\n


\n
that’s not it<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

sunday afternoon siggif heads home, relatively happy, although a few swearwords did cross his mouth <\/p>\n


\n
the bridge<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

so, monday comes, & the gang is allowed to fish until 13.00<\/p>\n

not too much is happening, so a suggestion to head down to the bridge is unanimously accepted and the suggestee patted on back<\/p>\n

on way down there, they run across the farmer who asks ‘how’s fishin’?’ to which the gang replies: ‘two salmon & a few wee ones’<\/p>\n

‘ach,’ says the farmer, ‘please get one more. we’re up to 199 & i want to see it up to 200.’<\/p>\n

‘sure will!’ the gang replies <\/p>\n

‘you should get a bite at 12.45 in the upper waterfall, on the right’<\/p>\n

‘aha!’ gang says, secretly nodding in the farmer’s general direction, indicating senile insanity <\/p>\n

anyhoo, fishing is attempted, but nothing is biting<\/p>\n

at around 12.39, jodaz sends siggimus over to the upper waterfall, on the right, where siggimus sinks the bait & waits patiently<\/p>\n

after a few mins, there’s a nibble, but nothing sticks<\/p>\n

then another nibble & something sticks!<\/p>\n

but it’s not very big & it manages to get off the hook…<\/p>\n

then suddenly, as the clock chimes 12.45, siggimus notices a little quiver at the end of the fishing pole<\/p>\n

something nibbles!!<\/p>\n

*yank a little*<\/p>\n

it’s on!!<\/p>\n

so, siggimus battles with the salmon for a minute, during which minute siggimus realises he’s not exactly in a prime location; perched on a cliff about 2 metres above the water<\/p>\n

in case you don’t know salmon, this is not a very good place to be<\/p>\n

so, siggimus does the only thing possible: yanks the silvery feller up out of the water & all the way up to the cliffy bit, where jodaz – panicking as always – grabs on to it for dear life & wrestles it onto the ground<\/p>\n

siggimus has caught his second salmon \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n


\n
it\u00b4s a beauty!!<\/em><\/center><\/p>\n

so, as they drive away, they run into the farmer again & in high pitched voices tell him that they have salmon #200 for him & that they actually caught it at precisely 12.45!! <\/p>\n

what a freakin’ coincidence!!<\/p>\n

farmer nods calmly & says ‘mmm. you know, people always think i’m lying…’<\/p>\n
