spent yesterday with a buddy on his punt, around sunbury, from first light for a couple of hours, we struggled with presentation while targeting the carp, the leaves and debris were a nightmare. we upped anchors and moved upstream to target the roach, couldnt buy a bite so cruised silently around with the electric engine eyes glued to the fish finder, eventually we saw some fish topping, anchored upstream and caught, roach, dace and perch, in the 4to 6 oz class, unable to catch any larger specimens we returned to the roach spot, a few baitdroppers later and bingo my buddy was playing a near one pounder, I quickly connected with another, before the wind changed and ruined presentation, we packed away late afternoon, cursing the wind for ruining our chance of a netful of quality roach.
as I said on halloween "careful dear, dont crack your cauldron"
