After Ophelia's red orb we are now being beat up by Brian. I was surprised to find anywhere not being whipped up to a froth but the long stand of poplars were doing their job keeping the wind off. Very pleasing to hear the final whistle as Huddersfield held off Man. U as I turned off down the track towards the bridge.
Only a scant hour so slipped in at the top of the back eddy using the dying reeds fringe for cover given the clarity of the water. Had about half a pint of turning maggots, though the casters all seemed to still be sinkers.
Do mean to attack the main flush with a fixed spool from the other bank of the pool soon but today just happy to drop in with the 5bb Avon today.
Lots of dace in the hour or so with the odd smaller roach.
This one escaped a pikey end.
This perch came on last knockings and was the only fish to warrant the net.
And the inevitable cray. Locks like it has been in the wars
Got most of tomorrow and have a couple of new spots to search out, Brian permitting. Might be brave and give flake and worms a go.
