Kennet Carrier - Marsh Benham

0815 - 1345

Cold with fog - which eventually cleared for the last hour. AT -2º -> 4ºC, rings icing up till midday. Stream very full with just a hint of colour - perfect winter nick!

8 Chub: All bar one over 2lb; Best, 4lb 4oz, 3lb 9oz & 3lb 4oz. 2 Doz Roach & Dace (2/3rds Roach) A couple of the dace were lumps - one went 10oz the other, unweighed but of similar stamp. 1 Perch- small(ish). 4 Trout between 1¾- 2½lb.

Day got of to an inauspicious start with 3 trout from my first 3 trots - not what I wanted from a morning's winter chubbing. Thankfully my next swim produced my target species and I pretty much managed to avoid fish with an adipose from thereon. 4lber from a swim I don't recall ever catching a chub from before.

No - afraid not - this is a small syndicate that took me 10 years to get in!!! The River Lambourn stretches in my blog are free - and that's about it - all the other local ones (apart from this) are Newbury, Thatcham or Reeds waters.....
