| Still windy at Todber Both Ian {Greenheart} and myself had arranged to fish Todber on the 8th of December a couple of weeks ago, Ian was after more points for the species hunt, Pike, Bream, skimmer and a Gudgeon. So at 8am we were at Todber preparing our selves for a very windy day on Wadmill Lake. On arrival we were the only occupants on Wadmill. As the day progressed the wind and rain became more persistent. My tactics where to fish the feeder with maggot and worm to attract the bream, 3hrs into the day all I had caught was a tiny roach.  I felt that I was fishing at night as it was so dark.  As the day progressed I got wetter and colder and I was rewarded with 3 tiny roach and 1 perch.  However Ian was fairing a little better, with a steady stream of roach and a Brace of bream both coming in at around 5lb mark.   Not much of a report as most of the day was spent hunky down under the brolley hiding away from the rain and wind. One thing that did surprise me was that 3 others turned up and it looked like they were there for the night. I hope they didn’t get blown away. __________________ Born to fish made to work     |

| Re: Still windy at Todber Thats why nostrils are the way up that they are.... If they were the other way up, you'd drown when it rained. It nearly happened to me last time I was doing a handstand in the rain.....   __________________ Don't Judge My Path If You Haven't Walked My Journey... |
