Hutton Rudby

the new season is here lads and what a start.
I went to a club water today with Dazb and Bernie.
Bernie and myself fished the tip, Daz fished the pole.

Baits for me was, maggot,sweetcorn,worm and the odd caster, i used halibut groundbait with dead maggots and caster for particles, the weather was fine and sunny, the banter as ever was great.

The bankside was a bit muddy, good sign i thought

The peg i choose had cover for the fish, tench are well know in the water we fished, the lilly pads looked inviting cover for them i thought



And my gear set up



My intended fish was the Tinca.

I had a few casts, then a cuppa and a sarny. After i restarted things went bad, if anything was going to happen it was today.
The peg was very tight for casting, so i used the "underarm" style, worked fine then i started to have troubles, LMAO, the hook was getting caught in the reeds, wrapping around my rod tip, LoL

Disasterous and annoying.

Anyways here's Daz with his pole



And Bernie on his peg



We started to fish at 8.40am and finished around 2pm, in that time not one of us had a bite, nowt, zilch, bog all.

A poor start for our new season

We called into a Eden Meadows on the way home, had a bit of a craic on with some lads we knew, guess what they were pulling out ????
