Our 11th match of the season and a trip up to the River Great Ouse at Felmersham.
The last couple of year's visits to this venue I had done quite well on the maggot feeder in the deep section so that was plan A.
I also set up a pole line at around 8 metres, I fed this with several balls of groundbait with hemp, pinkies, a little chopped worm and a few dead maggots in it and then loose fed with hemp and maggots over the top whilst fishing the feeder.
It was much slower going this year with bites few and far between on the feeder but after a while I hooked something decent which was a Perch of around 1lb 8oz so that gave me hope, I tried the pole but after a couple of quick roach I couldn't buy a bite. Unfortunately that Perch was the only decent specimen for me today and not such a good result with my 3lb 8oz total.
The results and club report can be seen HERE
I did get a nice bit of time lapse of the sun going down though...
