Same here. Gone from the days of opening my chest freezer and seeing 100kg plus of boilies to now seeing no boilies but 50 peelers vac packed into 5's, 5 packs of English squid, 10 wraps of frozen blacks, 4 packs sandeel, 2 pack mackerel and 4 packs of anchovies.
How times change, looked in the freezer this evening and noted that I got more sea bait than carp bait
3k ish of cell and 2 k of sticky krill
2 packs of Squid, 6 Mackerel, 2 packs of Sand Eels and best of all a dozen crabs
First thing this morning on a Nutty Bait pop-up:
29lb
@crusian 40metres, towards Scotty dog
I've just been through my pics and our Facebook group. I have caught it before at the same weight last year. It was one of the 2020 stocking
Small common as I was packing up. Doesn't this time of year drive you mad. Spawning, not spawning, spawning, not spawning 🤷♂️🤣
Starting to feel like I'm on the wrong water again, think a long session on the reservoir is in order 👌
