Was walking the puppy round an old docks today. It is no longer used as a dock, and one side is leased to a fishing club. I passed a guy on his own who had just caught a chub, about eighteen inches long, which is impressive for those waters. He was trying (I think) to get it into the landing net to use it like a keep net, and was not having much luck. When he saw me watching he yelled with relief: "Thank God you were passing.....Please could you take a photo of me with the fish!"
As a post script, as soon as I had finished taking the photo the fish escaped from his hands and jumped to the ground. To be fair, chub are big fish, they are sort of round, like an obese dinner plate with fins (we get the word "chubby" from them, it basically means "you look like one of those fat fish"). It was much too big for the puppy's likings. And when it "got loose" he ran away, as far as the lead would let him!
