Well got to the freezing cold lake met with a few cars in the car park

and they were all on the bank i fancyed which was in the teeth of the wind and to add to my frustration they were catching

So i went for a wander around to see what was free and to my amazement the swim i was in last time was free and is one of the top pegs on the lake



So i was sheltered from the wind, away from the crowds and had plenty of water to go at

I felt like i fished well and everything i tried seemed to go my way i caught on pop-ups, glugged baits and my normal bottom baits so was well happy tinkering away. Even though it was bloody cold both day and night i ended up with 9 takes and 9 fish landed and they were as follows - 17.10, 17.0, 24.14, 20.14, 19.0, 15.12, 18.04, 19.14 and my best was saved till last at 9.00pm last night i caught a 27.04!!! Nothing else after that fish apart from fireworks going off all around the lake so a good time was had all round



The fish im holding are the 20's and are 24.14,20.14 and the 27.04
