Shift change on the bank

The Conditions looked great today, I headed down to the Sluice and I was quite optimistic of catching. I was to be kept waiting until around 12 O'clock before I had a fish on the bank. A Pike of around 7lb's. The rest of the day was very quiet. I was just about to pack up when I turned to my left to see Ben sneaking up on me, he'd decided to fish in the afternoon. I had other commitments so he took over my peg. I hate him now! As in my absence he caught a 5lb and a 13lb 8oz, what a cracker :-( Damn they should have been my fish, there is one bonus though, he's gutted that they don't count in our Pike league. :-)
