Anyone else get out fishing today? Weather was good, not ideal conditions due to the sunlight but it was better than wind and rain!
We went here, nice place which is a 5 min drive away: http://www.harlesthorpedam.co.uk/

Looks a bit different in February:

Anyway, I ended up with a skimmer (bottom left) and a few roach, weighing in at 4lb 4oz:

Here's my bro's catch, 6lb 10oz, consisting of a 10oz perch and a nice mixture of roach and skimmers:

Hope the weather's fine tomorrow!:cool:
 
Thanks!:) No the fish were all put back, i'm pretty certain roach wouldn't taste nice:p

JUNE?! Pffttt, fairweather fisherman eh?;)
 
You don't eat coarse fish, they were returned to the water just after those photos were took.
 
We spent most of last summer carp fishing, it's fantastic - but I enjoy fishing for "bits" in the winter just as much, aslong as you have a flask of coffee you're sorted:D You still have a chance of getting a carp anyway, or a decent sized roach or bream.

I'll update this thread tomorrow as i'm 90% certain i'll have a nice pic of a golden tench if all goes well:D
