Satruday Nordley 4 for Tench.

[barbelblanker]

A very quick report full of action NOT!

Deliberately set about looking in this lake to see of there were any tench about.

Found a corner swim where the water was shallow. Some trees poked in the water and it looked OK.

Put one rod out with the carp bait on , well away from the tench swim.

Used a very sensitive float (one of them poundland ones with the broom bristle) and decided to sit and wait. Tench seem to have a habit of cruising around where I come from so I set "the trap" and waited. And waited.

Well neither rod moved till about two hours in the bristle shot under and the culprit was .,.... a bream about two pounds.

And that dear readers was it.

Bait for tench was sweet sweetcorn (I think that's what the bream came for ) and fed corn and hemp (with added scopex).


Carp bait was a home made scopex boilie.

No photos as my dear wife has bu@@ered off to Nick R land with the girls and left me sulking, working and listening out for the standby phone all week.

Ah well , next week I am not on standby and Himley hall she beckons.
