Due to being utterly useless and lazy (and getting a ps3 for my birthday) i havnt done a blog after any recent trips!
A day on the csas stretch of the kennet saw around 40 fish landed including a monster gudgeon of just short of a pound (im convinced it was a barbel but an older 'wiser' angler has informed me there arent barbel that small in there so it was DEFINATELY a gudgeon 
) the rest of the fish were a pretty even mix of roach dace grayling gudgeon and perch.
A day on the wierpool at colthrop saw a handful of small bits and bobs but no big gudgeon or carp 
A morning on the kennet above hambridge yielded another big gudgeon of 1lb 3oz (had digi scales by then for accurate weighing!) and around 20 other tiddlers. I waded across to fish the far side of the island which provided a grayling of 1lb 1oz and a chub of 3lb 6oz.
An afternoon on willows lake saw 9 carp to 11lb 8oz grace the net in a little over 5 hours!
Barton court lake was next on the list, interesting day being showered with spray from shotguns! only fish out were 5 small skimmers, pretty sure the shooting turned the carp off!
And lastly i went with a mate to frobury farm, spent a few hours on the top lake with no signs of any fish so we moved to one of the match lakes for the last hour and switched to waggler and maggot set up and caught around 15 rudd.
Nothing amazing (apart from the monster gudgeon but a few enjoyable trips!
