A bad couple of trips ,,,,5 actually.

  

Well be out a few times and fished like a total twat, sorry but its true. Had a session on orchard at Arden fisheries , hooked a lost one fish, that was the extent of my action. John on the other hand fished great and took a nice bag of Perch . Well done.

  The weekend after fished a match at woods and drew peg 5, a good island peg , again i blew it , i tried the bread flake approach , just for the carp, but no show and there seemed to be  a lack of silvers in front of me , thats my excuse anyway.John fished great again and came 3rd, missing out by a few ounces. Oh i had 2 fish ?

The weekend after was the start of the winter league ,at lower park. (the winds got up again). John laughed as i pulled out peg 15 the peg i hate , its so deep and a full face on wind seems to always hit this bank. Again i tried for bonus fish and never had a bite, but i am glad i stuck to my guns and was disciplined in my approach.

John finished joint 1st with 3lb something , a nice bag of silvers, well done again.

   Now this weekend was a disaster, it rained non stop and after a bite less couple of hours ,the top lake burst its bank and a torrent of water came rushing down the hill. The lake we fished on began to rise rapidly and me and my other friend John began to panic as the water rushed over our bank , flooding my tackle bags( see pics) and flooding the field where our cars were parked. I have never packed away so quick.
