River Kennet - Thatcham

 

0930 - 1230

 

Overcast and mild with squally showers. 9ºC. River up 3-4 inches on last visit (Boxing Day) and quite coloured up.

 

1 Chub; 4lb 4oz. 8 Dace - most normal dace size with a couple of clonkers that warranted the scales - 12oz & 10oz. Possibly my biggest ever from here. 1 Roach, 1 Grayling.

 

Plan was to get a chub - achieved within 10 mins from a reliable spot but unlike 2 weeks ago I couldn't winkle out another one - this is probably the same 4lb Rusty's had out recently! Then found a nice slack where I had all the rest of the fish from. Three other anglers here and none of them had caught a thing - so feeling quite smug! :bleh:

 

Same as your's Chris?

Not sure, I usually only get one from there. Last time out was unusual in that I lost a chub from that swim but then caught one 5 minutes later, maybe he's not the brightest chub in the river;
