April Sunburn? - Lakeview - Harbour - opposite the gap

Arrived at Lakeview around 8.30am after a slow start, usual lack of sleep - tired and grumpy. Confident of a peg on a good lake after all the changes. Key lakes were matched up and so headed to Harbour, only later to find that Serpent was free.

Fished opposite end of Harbour. Opposite the gap where the leg of Harbour branches off - on the map below exactly where the H of Harbour is.



Fished three swims in all - straight in front, at 2/3 O'clock and in the margins to my left under a tree. Caught in first two swims from the off, fishing on the bottom with corn having cupped in small pellets. Didn't go near the margin until later.

It was hot, dam hot, in t shirt from 8.30am arrival and ended up with burnt arms, it was like August can't remember the last time I fished in weather like this and only a month ago it was breaking ice weather. Caught steadily for first two hours, but then the sun was high, hot and it was still slowed right down. Picked up the odd fish in margins and swim straight across. Still not convinced of needing more than one swim.

Caught between 20-25 carp so about 30-40lb of fish. Good session but sleep needed. Fished 9am-1pm. Bring on the next session.
