Early start again, first on fishery again, loaded up and out of car park by 4 50 am, fished same swim as Tuesday, same methods too, had three carp in first hour.
I do seem to take quite a bit of tackle with me, to much really but if I didn’t I’d be thinking I should have brought such a thing.
Had this kingfisher sat across from me for a few minutes, there’s one or two about at the moment, kept picking the odd carp up at intervals through the day as well, and only lost three today for a change, all lightly hooked that I landed.
In the afternoon there were quite a few on the surface, and a chap near me was catching on pellet waggler, so had a look in my bag and found a middi float, one that you can put pellets in, sealed with soaked pellets, and a spring pushes them out, first cast and the float shot under, and I caught this nice common, don’t get many mostly mirrors,
Had two more on it as well, so another method to try, finished up with twelve carp and one bream, doing better for carp on this fishery, had 74 already this year, against 66 all last year, not bad for twenty pounds a year, more tench than I’ve caught for a long while as well.
Micks back of his holiday Sunday, gets one day fishing and then a small operation will stop him fishing for a couple of weeks, so more fishing on my own for a while yet.

. Talking to a friend at dancing yesterday he had to give up fishing the other day to give his arm a rest. He lost count of how many carp he caught he caught.
