That’s a beauty Moley, I seem to remember a comment on one of my threads by your goodself - it suggested you couldn’t take a photograph? Lovely stuff sir.
Photos are a bit hit and miss. Also cameras have a very short life span in Mole hands. Matron
won't let Fatty touch her cameras as two have previously demised by drowning under unfortunate circumstance........,. they were both very expensive!
Suffice to say pictures on the old box brownie have to do!

Well done Moley. I must admit I am thinking of attending the Gonk Fest this year. My days (many years ago) of attracting the Gonks was down to using maggots on a size 18 hook but as I cannot use any form of livebait anymore I have been somewhat reluctant to join the Gonk Fest as I doubt I would be contributing much at all. However, a chat with Dave Burr seems to have resolved that issue as someone has to come last and fail and in that I have his total confidence.
Get thee to the Gonk Fest no excuses as the little blighters take bread and plastic baits too. But don't listen to that Dave Burr as soap and gooks are not baits persons of a more normal persuasion would recommend........he is a very naughty boy!

When I said to use bare gooks or soap as bait, I was only joking
Come and join the fun Keith, you'll love it and you'll get to meet some of the weirdos that enjoy such things. Fishing in a straight jacket is tough but possible.
Nice gonking Moley but you'll need to be on your best game in September
At my age Dave it is a miracle Fatty is still game at any level.
What can one say but Gonks love Fatty, they always have. Maybe they are drawn to the pies and tea or could it be the singing, albeit slightly off key.
Still thinking about it Frank Sinatra made a tidy living doing just that reaching the height of his powers with Nelson Ridldle on his best albums from the early 1950's. Fatty does his best singing with a cheaper version of the great band leader and arranger.......Jimmy Riddle!
Anyways on that thought, time to go.
As ever,....
