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.....

Heres a small one that I caught a few of, rather like a mullet only a very long way from the sea, wriggly buggers...

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.......
