Spent 2 nights on the river Monday and Tuesday. Got to the river about 3.30pm after I had a chat to Eric. Walked to crewil pool. On the way down I am always looking into the river to see If I can spot any fish. I saw a shoal of about 20 sewin with a few big ones.When waiting to go down the river to fish I met a lad that I met at the AGM.
We had a chat he said night fishing at the mo is no good.When waiting to fish my spot I saw a few fish jump not to big about 3lbs. Fished till about 12.30am. It rained on and off all the time, sometimes heavy, which made the water bubble. No fish. Tried the worm in the morning no good. Fished Tuesday night again, but the same as Monday. I did see a big fish jump, It was about 6 - 10 lbs. I fished Wednesday morning with the worms, had a few little Brownies. Then that pull which made the reel start to sing. I had him on for about 10 mins then shit he got off I was gutted. Over the years, I have fished ( my spot ), I've lost more big fish than I've landed.
That's the way it goes Nick! At least you had a little sport but I imagine most anglers on the river this year have little or no sport! Great blog Nick, good luck for the rest of the season and thank you for your contributions to my blog! Tightlines!
