Willows Lake - Thatcham

1800 - 0000

Warm (ish), overcast with drizzly rain to start - clearing and becoming quite cool. AT 21ºC -> 12ºC.

1 Carp 8lb 1oz, 1 Tench 3lb 8oz.

A frustrating evening on the float. Lots of dithering, dips and rises and lots of striking at thin air for the first 3 hours! When I did eventually connect with something it was the right weight - but the wrong species! 8lb+ tench have been coming out of here this summer and I'd really like to get one as my PB is under that! Darkness eventually resulted in a tinca but it would prove to be my last bite of an otherwise disappointing evening!

😆 And I couldn't even get a carp off the top in the margins - usually when it gets dark - and the wildfowl go to roost - a few thumbnail sized bits of bread flicked in gets some response within 20-30mins - not a single slurp last might!
