Stroudwater Canal, Monday 18th April 2011
A phone call yesterday had me heading off to the garden centre to pick up a few parts we'd ordered for the pond. With the canal only a mile or so further away and the day so sunny and warm I decided to stick a rod and net in the car hoping to see a chub or two basking ....

Whilst digging potatoes in my Grandad's garden I was able to procure a dozen or so lively lobworms and decided to have a few hours into the evening down on the Cam. Settling into one of the swims I made on my previous trip without disturbance I soon spotted many roach in front of m ....
