Is this a real phenomenon or am I just remembering the few fish that do come when I'm nearly done and forget that:
a) I'd already had half a dozen 'last casts' and would have had another handful if I hadn't caught a fish b) forgetting the 200 other last cast sessions that didn't bring anything c) last casts often come during prime time i.e. evening time when the light change is/has taken place so more likely to catch a fish anyway d) was lucky to catch a fish for whatever reason close to pulling the pin, so naturally left on the last cast e) all of the above Caught a nice fish the other night on a 'last cast' after not seeing much earlier in a spot that I wouldn't normally have picked for a bigger fish, and remembered more than a few others that had come from a last cast over the years. Should start a fishing diary and watch it more closely. At the very least, more research is needed Steve |

All of the above, Steve.
I posted on WHATEVER, a report about exactly that, last week. I admit, openly, it would not have been my last cast if I was armed with a torch. Lively fish, lure, flailing hooks and no light, all add up to DISASTER! Better to unhook in front of car headlights, than risk the injuries that would happen. It IS a phenomenon, made by us!!! Is it not a great way to end a trip??? Cheers MAL
