Then I made the most of the wet weather and went worming. Took a while to find them but some were absolute monsters.
Wednesday it was up to the Fens with Dicky Boy. Very very cold, but a stream of cheese, ham and onion toasties , courtesy of the magnificent Ridge Monkey, made things better. One nice zander for me and some nice roach and skimmers for Dicky Boy.
Thursday on the upper river. First cast, a big chub lost. Bastard !
Got one just over 4lb later out of an incredibly snaggy swim.
Friday and the river looked perfect and I stayed local. Ten minutes from the house and I was fishing. Bites in most swims, it was great to see the quiver jagging round and I ended up with six nice chub. Lovely bit of fishing.
I don't think I'll be out as much next week, heavy rain will give us the first proper flood of the winter for sure.
