The calm after the storm, still blanked though.

Is this View of your bivvy door group ? This is my view currently, little gap is the fart extruder, it's pretty windy today 😂

I've stuck a zig out, desperate times call for a fathom height zig.

I'm blanking in the cold and now rain still got 24 hours to go though 🙏for a bite now

I went Friday, didn't catch anything 😂

I caught this one while it was absolutely chucking it down about this time last year, the downpour made me think I had no chance and was going to be on the end of a two night blank. Luckily this one ignored the script and I was happy to get a soaking. Packing up in the rain wasn't much fun though. But you won't catch em at home.

Very smart, I did notice the fish outside at the garden centre had slowed down a bit the other day, weren't so bothered about the pellets floating on the top. Hopefully won't be long till it's British record time 😎

I use the fox tadpole set up with solid bags and leaders, because you remove the original insert on the fox lead, they have a decent sized hole that easily comes off the tadpole insert which is kind of designed to be like a shock system if that makes sense 😂

Not really, sometimes get the odd bit of weed on the knot but nothing you wouldn't probably get otherwise.

Yeah I always use loop to loop, never had an issue.

It would appear we have been blessed with a spam javelin.

Yeah weed, pretty much stops it on the lake I fish.

Cant wait thanks. After last year's success, I fancy making it my winter go to this year.

I'm getting keen to get the flips flops out again.

I agree with the others, you might as well have a bash at those whackers, you've got the ticket and you may as well, you might find you enjoy it when you catch another one. That being said I couldn't be bothered to go tonight, I was so tired last night I couldn't be harrised to sort my kit out just to rush before dark, so I didn't 😂 You might find the banks are a bit quieter now and that might help you to enjoy it. Rather than comparing it to the other place look at the challenge you are faced with and think how best to catch them whackers.
