It’s been one of those spells where life seems to stack up all at once. A bit of bad luck thrown in with family commitments — sickness doing the rounds, car trouble to sort, and the school holidays filling the diary — has meant I haven’t even cast a line for three weeks. For someone who’s used to slipping off for a short session whenever a window appears, that feels like a long time.
I’m hoping to put that right next week with a few daytime sessions. Nights are off the cards as my wife is away with work, so it’ll be a case of making the most of the hours I have and keeping things efficient. In truth, I’ve missed that approach — travel light, stay mobile, watch the water, and react.
The forecast looks encouraging until Monday, before a significant change suddenly arrives. If it holds, there could be a decent opportunity to intercept a few fish while conditions remain stable. I’m leaning towards the club lake; it’s close, familiar, and gives me options if I need to move swims. After a frustrating few weeks away from the bank, I’m just hoping the pendulum swings back the other way and I can put a few carp on the mat.
Until then,
Richard
