Weirton Float Only Sun 7th May
Today I’ve fished a float only at a local water. I’ve set up a 5m and 3m whip and a long pole. I’ve started on the whip with a 2g as6 in 8ft of water chucking a ball in every 3 fish. I used 50/50Leam and sensas black. In the first hour I’ve had 65 fish. Then in the second hour I’ve had a bream on the whip and then hooked a carp which snapped me up. And that has ruined my swim for the rest of the day and I’ve had to revert to fishing for bream long but it didn’t produce anything. I’ve ended up with 17lb 3oz which was 3rd in the match and the best silvers weight🎉
