Today was warm and humid when I arrived, so of course by 4pm I was in my cosy winter hoodie. Things started so well, and the carp were obviously active, but a series of bad decisions made me waste a good opportunity to bag up.
Almost immediately I began to get bites, but not on the ledger as per usual. Something has gone wrong there, and I need to figure out what. I caught a couple of carp, then catching me half asleep something huge charged for the under growth and snapped my 12lb breaking strain line like cotton.
Gutted but undeterred I carried on, but I had missed my chance. Its getting very dark now early. Depressing.
