Thanks guys,
Good to see you all yesterday, the fishing was a little harder than on past opening days, but i really think the bitter cold weather played a big part in things.
Today it was a good bit milder and the placed fished far better, fish still came on and off all day but the "on" periods lasted far longer than yesterday, the buzzer sport was incredible, with 4 Stirling anglers getting 40 fish on C&R all on small buzzers fished about 2 feet under a bung!
We had quite a few of the overwintered fish in the 6lb and 7lb caught today as well as 4 doubles at 10lb 8oz, 10lb 8oz, 11lb 4oz and 13lb, still waiting on the right big boys showing up though!! Heaviest 4 fish bag for the weekend was 16lb 4oz, with an average weight of 3lb 5oz.
Hope to see all the regulars in the next few weeks.
SR
