One thousand fishman on the bridge!

I just came across interesting news today. In Luoyan city, Henan province of China, hundreds people were fishing from the bridge, and there were always fish being seen caught. It is a really awesome scenery.

A nice perch and big pike

Winter is on going. Cold and wet weather keeps me thinking about the goodness of summer, something like, blue sky, fresh air, nice sunshine and those beautiful fishes. In the last summer, I stayed in Co.Tipperary. I used to fish in the River Suir every weekend. The River Suir runs through Thurles, Co Tipperary where I was living. The most wonderful thing is that I caught a big pike and beautiful perch in one day. I always keep these photos in my laptop so that I can see them whenever I want. Due to the extremely bad weather, I cannot fish in the winter but I have these photos and dream anyway.
