Will the river drop in time 7-11-21

 So I’d made arrangements with Chris to bring the dream team back together .We had to have a back up for this feeder session , the plan was if the river wasn’t falling Sunday morning we’d go to a local Resovoir . Well it was so we headed to the river meeting in the car park to decide where we’d fish . The pegs we had in mind had been washed away due to flooding and the level wasn’t accessible so we went another 50 yards down stream and sorted out pegs . Early doors Chris was into plenty of dace and I had only a dace and minnow for my efforts .


Chris watching his tip like a hawk .My catch rate was improving as the river was dropping but now Chris had a nice grayling . The wind was playing havoc on my quivertip so I tightened it up to show either a drop back or the slightest movement .I was catching lots of minnows and dace in between .The wind was getting really feisty now .It was perfect conditions but where were the chub I said to Chris . Chris had to leave at 12 and I carried on fishing for another 2 hours .I managed a grayling also , but the dace  and minnows kept coming .


Look closely even a minnow swam into my feeder for freebies , how sneaky . This was a session I needed as I haven’t been out as much and was nice to be out with Chris again .

Tight lines, till the next time , Stay safe
