So this time I would focus on fishing the
quivertip rod for a change. Not my usual tactics, but if it weedled me out a
few bonus fish then this would be great.
It was a short session of mixed success. On
the plus side I picked up some nice roach on the disabled swim. I’ve been told
many times that there are good fish there, but whenever I trot the flow I pick
up nothing. But drop a maggot feeder into the flow and it was a completely
different story (or a least while it lasted). I may have to have a rethink
about this peg – not to mention a visit with the pole gear in the early season.
And I also I picked up this little
chap:
Not the biggest barbel in the world, but
hey it’s a barbel. Wo-hooo
So I tried a few pegs, picked up a few fish
(nothing else substantial though) and went home.
Hmm….
Total catch: about 25 fish (typical river
fish) for 5lb odd.
