It's very nearly time to go fishing - river season opens on Wednesday - like you didn't know! New line on reels, bits and bobs restocked and kit ready to go - time to make a few plans...
I'd like to up a few personal bests this season; rudd, roach and perch are the initial targets - I'd like to crack a 2lb+ roach and rudd, so close to the target. And a weighed 3lb+ perch would be fantastic.
I can't ignore the local barbel - so I'm again aiming to bank 100 of them this season. I'd like to beat my PB (perhaps a 15?) - but I'll probably have to wait until February for one to hit that weight.
I have a couple of winter pike targets (after so few pike last season) - but with the threat of Covid making a return I'll post about that nearer the time - I don't want to curse it!
Right, hopefully on the riverbank on Wednesday (second Covid jab tomorrow and it made me ill last time). Tight lines bloggers - and I look forward to reading all about your adventures this season...

Best wishes for the new season Brian, looks like a decent plan there. I fancy a 6lb Warwickshire Avon chub and got a few other ideas.
ReplyDeleteIt has snuck up on me this year, but always make a few plans - and rarely stick to them. Good luck with the chub, hope your season is as fruitful as your closed season :-)
DeleteI've had such a lousy run of late I don't think I'll set any targets this year, just fish for bites. And my pedometer has been trodden into the mud :o)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great one Brian.
Every season; step 1 get a bite, step 2 catch a fish - any fish. And work from there. A fish on the bank is always my target for day one.
DeleteJust about to hit 10,000 miles on my Fitbit - this week?!
Have a great season - look forward to reading about some big fish...
Good luck with all your targets. Let's hope that this season passes without any further interruptions? Take care, stay safe & tight lines - Dylan
ReplyDeleteCheers Dylan. Fingers crossed there isn’t a new lockdown! Just reading your blog...
