Sunday 26th May 2013


Todays there were 11 Cygnets at the session. The weather was cloudy, with bright spells and felt quite muggy. Once the Cygnets drew their pegs they were eager to get started fishing. There was almost instant success with fish being hooked not long after starting the session.

There were fish all around the Mill Pond today. However, the majority of the fish appeared to be around the bottom corner. There were a number of fish hooked and lost throughout the session. The Cygnets found the Ricky Special, Orange Blob, Cats Whisker and Olive Neon Damsel to be successful patterns today.
