Following the good news that the upper river is 'fishable' again had my 1st 'Upper Trent' session of the season. Still weed coming down but fishable although I never did fish it when the weed was bad, just took everyone elses word for it.
Plenty of small stuff on the maggot feeder and 2 perch on livebaits although the biggest would have struggled to make 1 1/2lbs. One 5lb barbel later on @ 21:25.
Surely the law of averages would suggest I have to catch something decent soon...
