Choprider Posted December 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2020 This mornings view......was a pleasant one watching the reflections as well as watching carp feeding in the still water.. my trip was another one of my short sessions on one of my club waters, bait in the water at 7.30 and packed up at 10.30... ( I do a lot of these short sessions in the winter, just to keep an eye on what’s going on ) this water is not a easy water and you almost need a machete to get to the swims around the back and a good pair of wellies to get through the ankle deep wet mud 😁... so it was my “ very mobile and doesn’t matter if my gear gets damaged kit today “ the trip was enjoyable but didn’t result in any big mirrors that I was after today, but did result in a fairly small common which was still a welcome result in December.. crusian, finchey, commonly and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
