Just a small post of Sunday afternoons fishing trip to our local fishing lake here at Mukdahan on the banks of the Mighty Mekong river in Thailand.....
It's a pretty spot...
and it's got some pretty big fish in, quite a lot of which I don' actually know the names of...
Heres a small one that I caught a few of, rather like a mullet only a very long way from the sea, wriggly buggers...
This one is somthing like a cross between an European Roach and a Bream...
But the fish of the day was one I do know the name of...
A Mekong catfish...
Only a small one, these go up to 200 plus kilos...
Good to eat at this size though...
I've always gone fishing since I was a six year old, taught by my Grandfather,
it is a form of meditation for me and always manages to relax me more than just about anything else...
Many thanks to my friend Tackie for providing most of the photography.......
