I have only done 3 weekend Friday to Sunday sessions since my traditional new year eve session due to the weather. I feel that I have no need to sit it out in all weathers now I have done that in the past over the years for very little reward and am happy to leave it to the other lads that want to do it.
So this weekend will be my 3rd full weekend. Weather forecast is looking up and should be by Sunday up in the high double figures BBQ weather and the zigs will be out although I have been trying them in the day with only one take that I missed due to taking a pee just as I started the buzzer started to make a noise the bobbin went tight against the delk and the rod tip was bobbin too. It was ether pee myself or hope it was still on when I finished I went for the latter option which turned out to be the wrong choice by the time I got to the rod the fish had slipped the hook.
With the weather picking up it will not be long before the fishing kicks off and hopefully I will be there when it does. In the two week that I have been the only angler to catch is Spod with a stunning 30-01 common and Clippo who has had fish in his last two sessions although he has been having a few over the winter from a swim he has been baiting both was mirrors of 33lb and35lb.
Happy clippo with just one of his mirrors at 35-12
