Another night, oposite end - seen a dorsal waving around close in my water, then it lazily shuffled out 3 times.
Whilst packing up it came past again to say goodbye or haha you blanked you nod.
Freezing cold overnight. Good frost and ice in the edge.

Overnighter on the river last night, I had a screaming take… 
 
…from a badger!! 🙄

The last cast @ Bury Hill (Temple Lake). I'm supposed to be out of here in 5 minutes, but I think as today is the last days fishing here no one will mind. I never caught here, but it's one of the nicest and safest fisheries I've ever come across.

Sat 22nd Feb - First night on the syndi, nothing seen or heard except the thousands of birds roosting - what a place, love it, fingers crossed for a good year! 🤞

my rods out into open water

day trip on the park lake 
 
I lost a bream 🙄

the boys rods out on the spots 

I used to spray them with WD40 and wipe off the excess prior to a wet and windy session which improved this somewhat, yet my boys “budget” fox mini microns at £20 a pop have got completely soaked, dropped, stored in a damp garage covered in mud and all he’s ever had to do is change the batteries once in the last 2 years. They’ve never missed a beat 
Well a night in front of the log burner has dried them right out and solved the issue, so I guess it was moisture in the alarm as suspected

could you use one of these fox leads to have a lead about? It’s not a weed rake after all… might help clear a few spots
