K&A Canal - Nr Thatcham

 

0720 - 1100

 

Still, overcast and mild - with the sun breaking out for the last ¾hr and the breeze picking up. WT 52ºF.

 

6 Perch; 3lb 5oz, 2lb 10oz, 2lb 5oz, 2lb 3oz, 2lb 0oz, 1lb 12oz.

 

A perfect perch morning got off to a perfect start with the 3lber first cast! The biggest 2lber followed soon after and I thought I was going to be in for another morning's haulin! However there then followed nearly an hour of crayfish activity and my 'lobworm attrition rate' shot up - was worried I was going to run out. Thankfully bites from stripeys returned - but they were never really having it, probably as there was also a pike feeding in the swim. My smallest perch clearly showed signs of having been grabbed by one and I was briefly connected to an Esox before it bite through my hooklength.

 

A couple of piccies - first, and last fish caught just after the sun came out...
