Very pleasant day today. Sunny with a chilly breeze.
5 turned up for our club knockup on the GUC Dixons gap.
Most members were fishing near Reading on the K and A .
Started off on the far shelf with punch. Bites were one a chuck but the gudgeon and roach were tiny, almost see through. I caught about 50 then my elastic decided to snap and disappear down inside my topkit.
Must have been worn as it certainly wasn't the fish...
I had earlier fed my down the track line with 3 balls of GB and chop and caster. Stuck it out for 3 hours. 3 bites on worm section, 2 small perch then a very welcome skimmer around 3lb that won me the match..
Nice day out..
How did you get on?
