A short but sweet angling start to the day
Especially now that we’ve passed the longer days at the height of summer, I find that I don’t need an alarm to wake me.
That was the case this morning, when I woke naturally just in time to go fishing at first light.
It was another pond that I headed to and I stayed with the format and approach that I’ve been using for a while now.
It’s 4lb line straight through to a size 14 hook and the shot either side of the 0.8g waggler.
The bait was two white maggots, although with some of them turning, I did catch the bigger fish on caster.
It’s a very shallow pond and fishing off the end of the rod means that keeping a low profile is essential.
I was only there for an hour but caught lots of roach and several perch.
Taking into account the size of the venue, it was short but sweet indeed.
Stewart i know you are a busy man but if possible can you do some fishing playlists on your YouTube….such as one for pike,maybe one for Sea,Stickleback etc etc.
I enjoy your vids and tend to have them playing in the background when i’m making pole rigs and pike traces etc so playlists would be useful.
Thanks…..Mark L
Thanks for the comments, Mark, appreciated.
I’ll look into that for the future. It’s east to create your own playlist though in the meantime.
Search YouTube for ‘word’ and add videos to a playlist.
Your reference to sticklebacks reminds me, haven’t been after those for a while.
Loved your shopping trip mishaps very funny 😂
Quite a series of events there, Alan!
The rat was the worst 🤮
I still haven’t worn the shoes yet, I will do this weekend though.
Have enjoyed the tench sessions over the summer. Watch out for those dead rats by the way 🤣
Hello, Chris. Nice one, you know the venue as well, of course.
Live ones are bad enough but entrails are worse 🤮
