NAA Stillwater - Thatcham

0700 - 1300

Overcast with some light rain at first.9->17ºC

5 Carp; 9lb 9oz, 7lb 11oz, 7lb 8oz, 6lb 14oz, 5lb 13oz. A doz roach.

A morning session hoping for an autumn crucian but expecting to get plagued with carp - and so it proved! In truth it was good sport and fun getting them on light tackle and a float rod. I landed 5 out of the 7 I connected with (2 lost to hook pulls) not a bad ratio considering I was using an 18 to 2¾lb bottom!

Biggest of the morning...
