The Puddle VII


The nights are drawing in but pike-time seems a long way off - still in drought and yet another heatwave. Couple of hours before it got dark on The Puddle and double #19 on crust - an almost black common at 11lb 4oz (my 10th Puddle carp) - just need one more - and some rain...

    1. Off the ponds at 9pm now - getting earlier and earlier. Don’t mind the cold but wish we had more light for the predator season.
