Fished the river at the weekend,water level up a little and coloured,looked really good.
As soon as i started fishing i was picking up weed and debris that was being washed through the swim.
Moved the bait from the faster water to the edge of the crease and although this reduced the amount of weed i was collecting it didn`t solve the problem.
I was not just getting weed around the lead it was also masking the hook and bait.
Any suggestions how to overcome this problem?
I`m fishing again on Friday and they have forecast rain showers for the rest of this week so i`m expecting conditions to be much the same.
Any advice most welcome.
