Fished next to the hole in the viaduct. At distance ringers green, shellfish bollie - the usual routine.
Fished from 8.30am until 12.30. Nothing in the first hour as usual, then they came onto the feed. Very steady from then on and would have been a great session if I'd not fished like a monkey and some how broke two of my tips for the feeder £14.99 a pop!
Butterley fishing gods usually take their payment.
Ended up with 11 fish and lost 3 on the way in. No weed at all, fish rolling at my feet potentially tench. Non Members are now allowed to pike fish all year round. Looks like we have a potential match venue with a variety of species on offer.
Overall enjoyed it, wanted to stay longer but burning and needed food. In fact I was just about to head to the cafe van when he sped off. Just about sums it up.
No food, no coffee, radio battery flat, sun burnt and broken tips aside - Butterley is back at its best and the bream are a feeding!! All fish 3-4lb stamp so heading towards 40lb.
Could have been my best day at Butters if focused, weather etc on my side.
Roll on the next session. Nice to be back on the tip - if a little expensive!
