The beginning
of January was proper winter fishing, due to most of the lakes in the area being
frozen it started with a trip to the Avon where I managed to get a nice morning
of roach fishing on the tip and float, I took my video camera and it can be
found here:
The following
week however there was a small low front that I had to get onto the club lake
for, it was a long cold night with not even a liner to show for it… it was time
for a rethink.
Once again
the lakes were frozen or at least not too appealing that weekend, so the plan
was for a trip to the Avon chasing Grayling and dace, I managed a few and had a
nice morning.
Next week
saw me getting away for a Wednesday afternoon, with the weather being rubbish.. High
pressure and clear skies I decided on a trip to Todber Manor, I fished on one
of their new match lakes and managed a few small carp. (ok tiny). The video is below but misses out on the part
where John the fishery owner laughed at me for having to don my waders and try
to remove a snag. It turned out to be an
umbrella!!! Fought well on a 0.24mm
Powerline hooklength.
There is a special message at the end aswell.
Due to the
cold weather the lakes were frozen again for the last couple of weekends, I
ended up on the river both times and had some nice fish but I really need to
catch a carp again soon.
Only a short
blog but until next month, Tight lines.
