Bright, cold and fierce wind. River being run off way past its bones. Slight bit of shelter on the staging with a high bank behind me on the farm pond. I had to fish quite overdepth to beat the undertow and bites were hard to see, just a brief lift of the float. I connected with two, both small roach. Left over hemp and groundbait bagged and in the freezer. Some may be deposited in the Suffolk Stour on Monday.
A well known long since escaped Harris Hawk, trailing jesses nearly flew into my windscreen on the way to the pond and I was treated to a goshawk flying over the poplars on the dam. Kingfisher too, catching the brilliant light of the low sinking sun.
Bright, cold and fierce wind never seem to be the best conditions for pond fishing. Still you managed a couple.
