Sunrise again

Today was another early start and it was great to see the sunrise over Kingsthorpe and bright skies but on the down side it did mean a frost and the car was showing minus 4 as i drove over to Pitsford.

Steve, Mike and Phil all joined the early start from the Pines this morning but the fish weren't feeding quite the same. There were a few rising but they were further out. I was casting out as far as I could and also slowed down the retrieve down to try and entice them on. Just after 7 it worked and my first rainbow was in the net. There seemed to be a shoal coming past but it seemed a little lethargic and not quite as big as it was.

I persevered and managed another 3 before 8am but it was then very quiet for me. Mike continued with his intermediate and orange booby and seemed to find the depth for a while and caught a nice few fish. I headed off for a cup of tea at my dads with all good intentions to return.

I sat on the causeway and the wind had changed and was coming of North farm shore and blowing into bog bay. With a load of cars off Stone barn I decided not to join the crowd and headed off for a lazy afternoon watching the cricket.
