Hey that was a good sized male tench, which would suggest that their are females in that water twice the size.

Looked like a good days fishing mate.

Brilliant, and the sun splitting the stones too.

The only thing that could have made that more nostalgic is a quill float popping up, laying flat on the surface then dragging along till it goes under.

Swim had been raked by someone else mate. Did wonder if someone was intending to fish it but no one turned up .I usually go down and take a swim if I know I'm gushing it and pre bait with corn and maggot. When bream gushing there we catch the odd tench in tge deeper warer and tgeres a marked differencd in color ,the deep water fish are duller whilst the margin fish are a lovely emerald green .I have a match there Sunday on the private stretch so hoping the bream will be on .Won it few times and hold the match record of 197lb .
