I have only managed a couple of half hearted sessions, whilst out for a drive along the river checking out spots and asking if others have been catching, so it was nice to actually have a wander along the river and fish a few spots with lures.
Claire had her little jig rod and I had my heavy lure rod for working rubber baits and big spinner baits.
We worked baits around a few areas that I have caught numbers of pike from in the past but to no avail.
The area is very attractive to pike, cabbage weed covers pretty much all the swims we fished, but we still didnt catch.
The river still looks like black tea at the moment, so im sure it has something to do with the lack of action.
My barbel rods are still sat in the corner, bait is ready, rucksack is sorted im just waiting for a free evening when I can have my first proper session out.
From the reports I have seen, there are a few carp and barbel being caught, and plenty of bream, so Im hoping to get out next week and give it a go
