No, not curry related. Fed up on my local plodding stretch and a broken Matchman Hook Tier I sacked it off and went to my local tackle shops for a replacement and fresh bait. Angling Direct: no, we don't stock those. Chunkys: I'll have a look on my desk. Sadly he'd given his last two away. Good maggots though and always a full pint. Found my last one back at home. Amazon or EBay next stop for a couple of spares
Now able to tie some hooklinks I set off for the upper Wensum for some flow. Too many minnows but had a few roach and dace, one of which I weighed to set a bench mark. 7oz as guessed. Cracking species the dace.
Rain set in so Plan B. Spoons brekkie and a pint of Abbott for under a fiver.
The rain eased off so headed up to Chicken Town but water low, some decent trout and dace hiding above the bridge in a thicket so had a walk up above the bypass. The horses were a pain standing on my net pole, trying to get at the bread. Even more arrogant than swans and a whole lot smellier. Will have to distract them next time.
