Closed Season Update

Probably done about as much fishing in the whole of the closed season as I do in a week sometimes during the river season. Played lots of golf though...








3 trips to one fishery which has produced some very good perch. Not to me though, just small perch, carp, bream and roach.










One tench fishing session, caught one tench.
















One visit to the commercial I perch fished last closed season...quite productive for perch, caught a few but again, no big ones. Apparently the place did a 5lber this year as well!


As usual the tench had a liking for my prawns, the last of which fancied its chances against my match rod and took me all round the swim, tangled up with my livebait rod in the process and leaving me with the choice of tackling up both rods again or going home. I went home.


Apparently the fishing season starts on 16th june this year.
