I never caught a fish there, once lying to my dad I did catch a fish. He smelled the hook and said yeah sure, good one. My first rod was a bamboo one, so we all went fishing at the Zegerplas to try it out...didn't catch anything and then my mom caught a Brasem on her first try, and we were all in panik. Another guy fishing there netted the fish and took the hook out. I also remember there where motor cross races on the garbage dump near Zegerplas that was later developed into a park. That good old smell of garbage and 2 takt motorbike engines. And I do remember seeing speedboat races on the Zegerplas in that time. Alphen aan de Rijn as I remember was a good place to start at in life.
