I really enjoy winter fishing. I think I have caught all my biggest roach in the winter, although not the biggest bags of fish. Chub and grayling are also good in the winter.
Benny's a self confessed '' Daisy boy'' then, a fine weather fisherman.
Back to the gravel pit for some more roach yesterday, much calmer than last week but the fishing was slower. Still not managed a '2' yet this season but getting very very close...............

Yes, I agree, a really beautiful fish Jerry. Pretty much in perfect nick.....I assume you put all the other lb'ers back rather than spoil this photo ?
Did you actually weigh it ??
Laleham eh ? Well there's a thing but what do I know ?
I had just over a quarter of a pint of last week's two pints left. There's always a risk that wouldn't be enough, so off to the tackle shop I went for this week's two pints. Seventeen grayling and four trout later and I still had some of last weeks bait left and hadn't touched the new stuff. I still managed to feed them off in two swims.
Anyone getting bored of my thrice weeky reports that are pretty much interchangeable?
The roach didn't oblige to begin with but by 11am I'd had a few fish of reasonable size
Not at all Sam, this is the thread I always look for first. Hearing how everyone else is getting on all over the country is very illuminating. Personally I hope this thread just keeps on going!
