I've only walked down there once, and my first thought was I wonder if anyone fishes into the boat house, it's probably a good cast from the far bank or possibly can be fished from the no night fishing bank but this time of year I don't think many would have a problem with a brolly set up on there.........

Was going to say it's got to be worth a punt , but is that too cheesy ?

To much red wine I'm afraid BC 😀

It's as CM said. Can't really fish in there. Although the fish have been known to go in there when it's hot conditions so maybe they would when it's cold. Bait boat the ideal tool to get right in there as you could never cast inside it.

We've had like 4 inches in an hour this morning. Roads are blocked. Including dual carriageways. Grit didn't have a chance. Ploughs are out but I'm stuck in the village I reckon.

A45 is blocked up. No one is going anywhere I don't think. Hope he has enough supplies to last out another night if necessary. Only a short walk to Tesco though if needed. I got around the village this morning just about. Don't think I'll venture out further. Even if I added weight to the van it won't help. It's compacting so easy that it's just slippy everywhere.

You're my hero. That's brilliant. Hope you have supplies to last you a week! 

Hope you catch too. Must be boiling insulated by the snow though!

Happy that you're safe and sound ( but not of mind ! ) Chill. , but will the snow covering stop you registering and / or striking when you get a bite ? .

[yonny]

Love it @chillfactor. Go on my son.

[dayvid]

Good job you have Delkims and not Fox , you now have a chance of hearing that run with unfrozen Delks.

[chillfactor]

well gave it as long as I could gents but no snow carp  .... it was getting over 2ft deep on the track out so was time to make a start on the long journey home , would of stayed longer if i could of but needed to get back to the family. started slowly as we couldn't get up the hill out of the lake lol .

But a bit of graft on the shovel & we were soon on our way.

Well the estate lake is frozen solid. A few places free of ice in the margins have got a dribble of bait. Hope it thaws for the weekend but doubt it.

The temps tonight/tomoz morning are savage mate, -5 around that area. They'll all be solid this time tomorrow.

Bit of rain forecast for Wednesday, that might be your best hope for a thaw.

Yep. I hope it does thaw. Was meant to be on a site visit today. Cancelled that though. Didn't need to be sliding around the countryside in the van!

We are due minus 9 tonight and with over a foot of snow still on my lane, it’s going to be fun trying to get the car down it and onto the clearer roads in the villiage for my drive over to Lincolnshire tomorrow morning!
