Making the most of it.

Back on it late doors, even though curfew beckoned. A lot more colour after last night's rain and not much of an up streamer to help holding back. Was just thinking about the last half an hour on the tip when the first one came, a long way down the trot. I made the most of the remaining light and the meagre contents of my maggot box and though it wasn't as prolific as yesterday caught enough to send me home happy.



Had three dace, and it looks and feels as if they might be starting to plump up. Whilst a ponded stretch above a mill it's always been said to be a good area for backend dace.




The last fish again the best, and even plumper than the dace. That's where it's got it's weight coming in at suprising pound on the nose. Certainly more solid and bluer across the back
