A diet of those fat little glittering fish helped it get in perfect shape after a long winter. Like a trophy it shined silvery in the water. The next course was served in low water.
Lugworm came out of their holes to breed and the trout downed so many of them that its tummy was hard as a drums skin. But more wants more. Sand eels started swimming around just after the worms disappeared and they didn’t have a chance when the high-speed hunter carved like a radiant sabre through their schools.
