The Invention of the Fish-Bomb

It  didn't take Mr L. very long to Get Busy on a fine Saturday at Syon Park

Mr L. playing a fish (left) and "acting natural for the camera" (right)

Indeed his tally of four fish to The Wandering Rod's none did  leave The Rod rather worried over lunch.
Finding catching fish a little tedious and repetitive, Mr L. broke the monotony with a little "here comes the choo-choo train"
That distraction gave The Rod all the opportunity he needed, and having switched to Blue Flash Damsel on an intermediate sinking line, he proceeded to bring his tally to two in short time.

On the way back East, The Rod asked Mr L. "Would you kindly hold my fish in front of St Paul's cathedral?", 

To which Mr L. replied "Why, certainly"
 The humble beginnings of the fish-bomb

The fish were then dressed, partly smoked and then barbequed, using cages improvised from aluminium foil and a coathanger
The fish were accompanied by rice, vegetables, New Zealand wine, expensive Kweichow Moutai, Mekong Spirit, Cheap Kweichow Moutai, vodka made from milk, and ice-cream.
