Short session


Try something different

Had a couple of hours last night into darkness and the showery rain set in.
Used proper maggots and prawns, trying to see if there is anything bigger in lake two.
Put a prawn on a size 6 and a big weight for self hooking and put it in the margins by the only bed of reed on the lake.
Got this one in about half an hour, dead on 10lb, a great bit of sport on my 11foot Youngs rod and Purist ll and a struggle to squeeze into my landing net.
No more on the prawn, but the little'uns enjoyed whittling them away!!


Plenty of the same size as usual roach and the occasional tiny rudd on the maggot hard on bottom.
At last knockings these two came along.Even more fun on my 14 foot match rod and size 14 both about 6lb.
