Having to return to normality this morning Kenny was very happy to leave us with the following report from last week:
He'd been fishing along from his usual swim (Lilly pad city) to fish the margins to the right and left from Wynn's peg on the point of Lonsdale. Fishing just a few feet out and tight to the margins over the week he landed 11 carp to 18lbs, and 8 others were lost at the net, not to mention the 15 Tench! All of which were taken on variety of Lonsdale Boillies including our shelf life strawberry and frozen flavours.
That would have made Kenny happy in itself but Lonsdale decided to put on one of those very special evenings we sometimes see with our famous silver fish.
Having returned from a lovely meal at our local village Pub (The Lowther Arms) at around half past five, Kenny settled a waggler into the margins with a big flake of bread hoping to tempt some more Tench to the net. However the first decisive take revealed one of our Roach around 1 1/2lbs to be the hungry culprit. In just 2 and a half hours Kenny netted 20 quality Lonsdale Roach between 1 1/2lbs and 2 1/4lbs - all of which were very aggressive in the take! Accompanied by Arthur who stopped his own efforts to watch this magic session the boys weighed several of the fish to make sure they really could believe their eyes!
Both chaps have been regular visitors to Lonsdale over the last 15 years, but this Red Letter Roach session will live long in the memory. Back for another visit in August I'm sure we'll have another interesting catch report later in the summer.
