Last session of the season

geoffmaynard · Mar 12, 2010

I had my last session of the river season yesterday, chasing grayling with float rod and pin. Had a nice easy 1/2 day landing about a dozen from as many swims with 3 fish hitting the 1lb 8oz mark

What are you going after?

peter crabtree · Mar 12, 2010

I shall spend saturday trying for a big chub from the Colne. Best this season is 5lb 10 but I know there are some bigger than that lurking.
Sunday I have a match bream bashing at Farlows lake.
Fancy having mothers day on the last day, lots of poor blokes will have to grin and bear it. You would think the government would change the date on this most important day.

Off to the Severn tomorrrow. Hoping to get one last Barbel but, realistically looking at chub. Will prob. try Cheese paste or similar, I've had some good Barbel on this so it should be good for both species.

Couple of hours tomorrow afternoon and a few hours Sunday morning roving with a feeder on the Cuckmere - Then Sunday afternoon in the doghouse! (and probably miss the rugby and the grand prix - all worth it for the last weekend)

I'm with mark on saturday and not sure on sunday either windrush or thames.

quickcedo · Mar 12, 2010

Sunday I'm back to the severn! esp. if I blank on saturday!!!!!!!

I am thinking about nabbing a couple of hours on The Don, Sunday *

A nice grayling or chub is my goal.

* The wife does not know this at the moment, so shhhh!

Hahah, yeah @ex,

But a nice grayling would heal the wound!

Mark Wintle · Mar 13, 2010

I've got the responsibility for trying to get messrs Marsden, Bibby, Connor, Jacobs, Whatmore and Hewitt (Richard) a few fish somewhere on the Stour today. The frosts have gone and the river is in fair trim but whether the fish will oblige remains to be seen. Tomorrow I'll have a couple of hours somewhere but that'll depend on today's result.

S-Kippy · Mar 13, 2010

My river season finished yesterday. I went out in style with a fine,fat minnow

But saw a barn owl on the way back to the car so the day was not a total disaster

Fred Bonney · Mar 13, 2010

I must get out on the river at least once more...I thought I was going to be happy with a 5:12 chub.
I can't let my last fish of the season be a 7:13 b**m!

Pete Shears · Mar 14, 2010

Last river fishing for me until 16th June resulted in a 2lb perch,missed another bite on lobworm and a bigger one fell off,still kingfishers,buzzards & kestrels filled in the gaps

peter crabtree · Mar 14, 2010

son of meldrew and I fished the colne yesterday and blanked......

today, while I was on the last club match of the season on a lake

the colne threw up an 11 barbel( to a FM member )and a 14 to another angler.

Specihunter · Mar 14, 2010

BLANKED on both days , lost a chub roll on next season.

What were you cathing those on?

quickcedo · Mar 14, 2010

Fished the Severn on Sat with Speci. Both blanked in style!! Fished the Cherwell today for about 2 hours and had a nice chub about 4lb. That'll do for me.

Nigel Connor · Mar 14, 2010

Off thread, but are you coming along to Clattercote Mark on the 16th April?

Back to thread.....

quickcedo · Mar 14, 2010

Nigel, was that message for me? if so what's on at Clattercote?
There seem to be several Marks on FM (common as muck)

peter crabtree · Mar 14, 2010

Nigel mate, it's the 17th innit?

Last session of the season
