River Kennet - Marsh Benham

0645 - 1115

Cool, calm & cloudy. AT 9º -> 14ºC. River VERY low.

12 Chub; 2lb 7oz and 11 chublets. 4 Doz Dace and Roach - in roughly equal nos (slightly more dace). Most of the roach were a 'nice' size though the star of the show (and the only fish to actually get weighed) was a cracking dace of 12oz. 5 Perch - all small. 1 Brownie c2lb.

Pleasant mornings trotting. The river is teeming with 'silvers' - which makes finding the bigger chub a bit of a challenge - eventually winkled out one from the swim just above the railway bridge.
