A most enjoyable day out. Weather was fantastic, got a bit of colour on my bald patch. Fish showing but only managed to bag a small stockie. The only downside was that i needed 2 trips to get my gear to the lake so ordered a small barrow last night and also decided that my small chair is far too uncomfortable so ordered a new chair as well.

That sounds like me 8 weeks ago 😂😂😂.

Zigs banned where I am sadly.

They were boshing out all over but only 1 fish out all weekend.

Guess winter isn't over for the carp just yet

Have to admit, im not a zig lover and have never caught on them. Luckily, the little lake i fish days on is only a few feet deep so i just tend to heavily glug etc. to try and tempt them down. I was one of two people that caught yesterday so happy with that.

Just a few quid out of pocket

Good to hear you guys are enjoying the weather/fishing. For those who can't or don't want to use zigs the fish might hold up in the water, but ime with these conditions they'll also be in shallower water around the edges, even right under your rod tips, as long as you're quiet you'll be in with a chance. They'll be looking for spawn soon too, fish and frog/toad.

Sun was nice, but wind was brutal this weekend down here.

Another weekend fishless for me

Ooh, very nice. No doubt my niece in Roemond will be posting lovely sunny pics of her dog walks on fb
Overcast & windy here, pleasant though!
