In reply to Post #37 Nope, had a blank and didn't see a fish show all weekend

Anyone do any better with the warm weather?! A friend did a couple of nights on the local water and he didn't catch. Still feels tough going out there.

Loads of mozzies last few days, big stripey buggers, got me a few times, you'd think they'd have better taste

I've seen the first Blackthorn come into bloom today, spring is here.

In reply to Post #32 Nice one 👍 Got to say it's very pleasant temp wise here though a little blustery and rain showers when not spitting most of the time.

Warm wind hopefully will get some fish on the bank. I set up yesterday for 3 nights on my syndicate hoping for a fish or 2 on friday with the low pressure, but managed one this morning during the rain, nice 22.6lb mirror

In reply to Post #16 They're doing their normal thing and rarely getting caught, or never getting caught.
We netted last Saturday and two commons came out that have never been caught, 19 and 24lb+. Another previously uncaught 24lb+ came out during the summer.

21mph from the south for Hampshire.
Other than a wet setup, it's gonna be lovely 🤞

You've won half the battle already by just going, and given this wind forecast you'll soon blow those cobwebs away
EDIT, Fri looks fun, 50mph winds in Cheshire!

Thanks Vossy
I've been getting all the bits sorted ready to do a few nights in the kinder months on an easy water, but figured with a weather front coming in I shouldn't wait, so I'm straight in on one of the hardest waters my club have 😂😂
Got that excitement from the anticipation building up already 😃.

it's "rough with the smooth" - cold winters & hot summers. Our spring seems to be a couple of months behind yours - by mid May it will be 20+ degrees every day until Halloween
I am always happy to see everyone in the UK catching as you come out of winter as it helps create a bit of desire for me to get out.
