Newbury AA lakes - Thatcham

1430 - 1100

Sunny becoming overcast. Breezy becoming VERY breezy. 13ºC-18ºC.

9 Carp (3½ - 8lb) 3 roach and a rudd.

Disappointing session on a usually prolific water. Paul did much better (eventually) and had a dozen on The Method - including a brace of 10's. Had hoped to do some surface fishing but legions of terns, ducks & geese made this sadly impossible - the buggers were insatiable - and did we try and sate them! Float fishing the margins - another - usually -winning formula, produced not a single bite - poo!
