Goldenloch 15/02/2009
Its been an exciting week at the Goldenloch, watching the ice just getting thicker actually on Thursday when the snow fell it really was quite nice if not a near picture postcard, biggest fright was when three small girls walked across the loch, that really caused my heart to miss a beat, I was screaming at them to walk off the ice slowly away from each other and not get to close to where the water runs out, what is it about snow and ice that attracts all the little ones, and why on earth do they think that water which normally they would never go near, suddenly will carry their weight, on speaking with them, they were looking for a nice place to build a snowman, Sunday now, and with the melt we have had to-day I would say, we should be fishing soon, I was up at the other hut yesterday and where the swans have quite a large area of clear water in the middle of the loch you could see fish moving, breaking the surface, only problem is you would need to be able to cast about 100m to get to the water, well I must say I been missing speaking to some you regulars, and hears the big news, yep you aren’t goanna believe it but I have stopped smoking, I haven’t had a smoke since Dec and I aren’t goanna have one again, boy its not been easy, especially without some of you guys to chat too, its mostly due to the amount of anglers that have given up smoking in the past couple of years and have said its about time I stopped, so that’s it, see ya all soon, John
