With the fishery closed ( for an open match - if that makes sense) on Wednesday and the temperatures forecast to drop this week I reckoned I'd better get myself over there today.
A change of feeder this week, a Preston Innovations ICS system set up with the maggot feeder
I was a bit puzzled by it but the fishery's Ian explained I needed the quick fasten bead part as well and the onsite shop had them.
First cast a knock I didn't connect with.
2nd cast a fish,
3rd cast a fish, things were looking promising!
I finished up on a dozen, all much the same size. Numbers wise my best day there but not the best average weight.
3 others fished today, fellah two pegs to my right using pellets on a feeder had knocks but caught nothing.
Chap on the pole over the other side had 3 fish and another
on the pole didn't even get a bite despite " bagging up" on that peg yesterday.
A bit more practice and I might just consider entering those matches!
