I was unsure where to go this morning but thought I would give the same stretch another chance . I decided to hedge my bets a bit and brought some bread . I left the pole at home and fished a tip rod and a float rod . Decided to try a different swim further upstream , 6 ft straight off the bank was encouraging , I fished a float with worm down the side and a worm on the tip rod upstream a little .Two hours pass with no interest so I move downstream , same set up to start with before switching to bread . Managed a chub at around 3 pm , a very tentative bite which was hard to spot in gusty conditions . A bit of a surprise when I struck and felt solid resistance , chub around 4lb . That was it fish wise , I had hoped for more action on the bread . Frustrating session but that's fishing ,better than work , just wonder where all the perch have gone. Packed up at around 6.45pm
