Got up early for this trip and was really up for it, but even noticing the temperature on the car was –7c i was still confident.
I met John at 7.15am and decided to have a hot sandwich on the way, this turned out to be my best and only bite of the day.
We set our gear out in the bay and i noticed how clear it was and looking back this was not the right swim choices as you only have about 2.5 ft of water at 12 metres.
John was lucky to have 1 Roach after trying all sorts of methods, i had even tried the bread flake, in the hope of catching a rouge Chub, but all was in vain.
After the session, we both realised that we needed some heavier wagglers to reach the main flow of the river, but only after a angler turned up and began to catch from the off. You can still learn from your mistakes even after 30 years of fishing.
