Alders Lake - Thatcham

1830 - 2230

Warm and muggy despite clear skies - though there was a few large spots of rain as I left. AT 26->19ºC.

4 Tench; 4lb 15oz & 3 around 1¼lb ± a couple of ounces . 1 Bream 4lb 7oz. 1 Roach; 'half decent' at around 6oz. 2 Perch; small.

A game of 2 halfs with all the action coming after 2030 as it got dark and not a hint of movement to the float before then -at least there were no crayfish around! Pleased to see the tench putting on a few ounces, very nearly my first ever 5lber from here! Also had time to bump a couple - one of which I'm pretty sure was a foul hooked carp (my hook came back with a scale ).
