River Kennet - Newbury

 

0800 - 1200

 

Cold and overcast - easterly breeze. AT & WT both 42ºF. River up at 'normal' winter levels - little colour.

 

5 Chub - 4lb 6oz, 3lb11oz, 3lb 10oz, 3lb 6oz, 3lb 3oz, 5 Dace, 3 Grayling, 1 Brown Trout (c¾lb) & dozen Gudgeon.

 

All fish on trotted maggot though started with worm for first ½hour or so to see if any perch were in residence - not a sniff yet strangely had the 4-6 chub first trot when I switched to maggots (and three more soon after).

Had a couple of blanks back in the summer - see enteries for 25 August & 21 July. I guess at this time of year its a case of knowing the waters really well - this was/is one of my 'banker' swims especially in the winter and to be honest I was hoping to get a 5lb+ chub that day!!!

Err... 59 trips so far this season (many quite short) - I don't fish from March 15th - June 15th and just the 2 blanks. (Only had 1 blank last year :) )
