I had a good session on the flowing canal 5 years ago when it was bite-a-chuck small dace on maggot feeder, and through sheer luck I ended the session with a pb perch of 3lb 3oz.
The weather today was OK, AT up to 12degC and quite cloudy, but I didn't like the high pressure and east wind. Rightly or wrongly I thought the dace and perch wouldn't mind this as much as the roach, so I decided to try and emulate 5 years ago - partly in the hope that the dace would be bigger by now.
Alas I had not anticipated the impact of Reggie and Ronnie! As soon as the bait went in the crays were on to it. 7 modest dace in 90 mins. Lesson learned that maggot feeder has to be left till the WT is lower.
