They're doing their normal thing and rarely getting caught, or never getting caught.
We netted last Saturday and two commons came out that have never been caught, 19 and 24lb+. Another previously uncaught 24lb+ came out during the summer.

Warm wind hopefully will get some fish on the bank. I set up yesterday for 3 nights on my syndicate hoping for a fish or 2 on friday with the low pressure, but managed one this morning during the rain, nice 22.6lb mirror

Nice one 👍 Got to say it's very pleasant temp wise here though a little blustery and rain showers when not spitting most of the time.

I've seen the first Blackthorn come into bloom today, spring is here. 
I got biten by a horse fly friday night, earliest I can remember that.
Loads of mozzies last few days, big stripey buggers, got me a few times, you'd think they'd have better taste 
Anyone do any better with the warm weather?! A friend did a couple of nights on the local water and he didn't catch. Still feels tough going out there.

Went mallard(bluebells). Caught 3 mirrors off solid bags and a small pike hitting my bait on the retrieve lol.
Fish were showing Friday then went quiet rest of the weekend.

Didn't get down my club water as planned but had a social day out on a day ticket.Thinking it would be a bit easier.
Saw loadss of fish showing but couldn't get them to bite. Either on the zigs of bottom.
My mate had a couple of pike out on deadbait so at least I saw something on the bank.
My 2025 blank continues. Hopefully not for long tho!

Looked a bit cold when i opened the curtains this morning. Hoping to get out for the day tomorrow but looking like another cold one tonight, -2.
Bright and sunny the next week, temps low/mid doubles, more importantly not freezing at night, not bad at all
