River Kennet - Brimpton

1700 - 2030

Warm and sunny. AT 24ºC. River quite full for high summer - great to see so much water in it!

6 Chub: (in order of capture) 2X ¾-1lbers, 2lb 5oz, 3lb 13oz, 4lb 3oz, 5lb 4oz (they got bigger as the shadows lengthened!). 4 Brownies, a 'pounder' and 3 in the 6-8oz class.

Super evening's sport - though, as per usual, had to rely on the 'rest and return' policy after 2 splashy trout in the first 5 mins from my banker swim. Fished 5 swims in total but only had fish from 2 of them...

Another session that backed up my little article for the newsletter 🙂 They just sit in the fastest current with their mouths open when hooked - can take an age to coax them upstream. Seems like these two forgot to close their mouths when they were on the bank! 😄
