And a while more

i know, I know, I’ve been crap updating the blog for around a year. It’s been a busy, hectic period in my life. I’ve had hardly any time to fish, and what time I have done has been stolen nights during the week. It’s hard work going to lake after work, getting everything sorted, then packing up in the morning just as the fish start to feed.

This summer I fished Horton Church Lake, a famous Cemex Angling venue. I chose this lake because it’s got a shower on site, meaning I could scrape every last minute by the lake. It didn;t really work as the fish rarely seemed to feed during the night. I did manage a few of the lakes famous carp thopugh.

I also managed a trip over to France with the boys for a bit of a road trip. Carp, wine and cheese dominated the week, just how I like it.

Unfortunately I had a load of tackle stolen mid summer which sort of put a stop to my fishing. Though as I look out of the window now, spring is beginning to take hold and I feel the the urge once again to get back out there.

Tight lines all.
