My First Fish!

A Memory of Uley.

With a borrowed rod, I caught my first fish in Stouts Hill Pond.
The fish took my hook quite deeply and after dis-gorging the hook, we assumed that the fish was dead and my friend Reg Thomas took the fish home to Dursley to feed it to the family cat!
On arriving home, Reg discovered that the fish was still alive and while it swam around in a fish tank for a few days, it did eventually die. Sad.
