nutsaboutfishing Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) Daylight savings has many good points. A new one I've discovered is you can wake up an hour later but still fish the rising sun. Got down you Chiswick aroundd 6.30 and started casting HB with a westerly at my back. Quickly bagged two Tailor. Then things went quiet for a while. Started to rain but I came prepared with a rain jacket and lucky I did. After awhile picked up a 28cm bream and that made to early morning and worth it. But few more casts later and hooked into a 35cm variety, it wasn't very happy and gave a good account for itself. Getting excited about the coming months Edited October 8, 2018 by nutsaboutfishing 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this what other people do? Edited October 7, 2018 by nutsaboutfishing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connico Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Bream and blades seem to work well. I set mine up with double hooks facing up and I've not lost a lure to snags since... I've lost them to fish fighting dirty and to shit casting (into trees and reeds) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time you twitch you retrieve. Then you stop and let it sink. Repeat till it gets back to you boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
