Well.
Nothing happened in the first hour of the morning apart from a few sharp showers which kept all other anglers away until 11. Again it was too blustery for the pole so I took at two-method feeder approach, one to my left adjacent to lilies, the other to the edge of the central island. As has happened in recent trips to two locations, a switch of bait lit the touch paper. Between 8am and 11:30 it got so manic that at one point I swapped to just one rod as I couldn't keep up with all of the bites. I landed seventeen bream, which apart from four skimmers, were all between 3lb and 4lb 4. There were also commons of 5lb 5, 9lb and 4lb 15 and mirrors of 9lb 13, 3lb 14 and 7lb 15. In among these was a single roach which, at 1lb 2oz, represented a rather embarrassing pb for me. If just one of the two bigger carp that I lost to the far-off lilies and I would have smashed the 100lb total, but then given a blank final half-hour, I couldn't be too disappointed with a 93lb 2 haul.
