River Kennet - Hambridge (CSAS)

0645 - 1100

Overcast to start with sun breaking through for last hour or so. AT 19ºC. River low and a little coloured up.

2 Chub: both around 1¼lb. 16 Dace: most quite chunky - I'd already weighed a couple at 7&8oz but last one of the morning was even bigger at a shade over 10oz. 1 Roach. 1 Grayling (circa 8-10oz). 2 Bleak. 3 Trout (8oz - pretty sure it was the same damn fish each time!)

Plan was to try and get a barbel for the 3rd weekend running so it was off to a swim where I had 5 from last Sep. Alas the Kennet decided I was being too greedy and offered up some nice dace instead.

Forgot my camera (so good thing I didn't get a biggy!) so cover pic is an unused one from last year at the same venue.
