Just heard of a 40 pound springer caught out of the Wallace about a week ago, don't know if its just a rumor or if its true, a guy was telling me about his buddy that caught it.

PM sent, but i advise if you want to do a half day, do the morning. Really tough to get those picky springers to bite in the afternoon. If you can manage waking up at 2am lol
