Pumphouse Lake - CEMEX Yateley 1815 - 0415 Lovely warm still night. Temp down to 9ºC in the car when I left but it must have been several degrees warmer in my little micro-climate under the trees - didn't need a coat or brolly all session. 1 Bream; 5lb 3oz, 1 Tench; 4lb 2oz, 1 roach, 1 perch. 5 hours of little activity, followed by 5 hours of no activity (followed by 5 hours sleep!). All fish caught by 2300 (could have had a lot more kip!) with no bites thereafter. Tench and bream on float-fished meat - tiddlers on maggot. All fish in the margins. Not a bleep on the lead all ni

Pumphouse Lake - CEMEX Yateley 1930 - 0530 Clear and chilly night - temp down to 7ºC at dawn - the thermal one-piece made a rare appearance!! 2 Tench, 3¼lb & 4¼lb Slow night, no bites until well after midnight - then a mini flurry when I had the 2 tincas - both on ledgered pellet.

Pumphouse Lake (Yateley) 1930-0000 Warm (17ºC) and overcast - started raining as I packed up... 3 Bream (6lb 2oz, 5lb 9oz, 4lb 13oz) Fished 2 rods - pellet on the lead produced not a touch. Started float fishing maggots in the margins - and had no bites for the 1st hour or so - sense of deja vu! Switched to float fished meat - and all the fish fell to this - though rather wished they were tench! Final fish was right on the stroke of midnight when I'd packed most of the gear away - and got the net reasonably dry - result; one car smelling of bream slime - yuk!

Pumphouse Lake, Yateley 1800 - 2300 Cloudy then rain. Blanked! Friday the 13th - pah! 10 rod hours without a touch. Pellet on the lead on 1 rod, float fishing the margins with a variety of baits on the other - couldn't even buy a bite with maggot or worm. Packed up early when the wind picked up and it started to rain - heavily! - I hadn't brought my shelter - the weather forecast having predicted a dry warm night! Glad the rain made my mind up for me - Paul fished on 'til 1st light - without success!
