The heavens opened as I arrived at the Sluice tonight. "All this for a fish!" I proclaimed. I set my rod up when the weather was at it's worst. There was even the odd crack of thunder, not an ideal time to be holding 12 foot of carbon. I fished hair rigged corn and also fished maggot on the tip. I had one Tench on corn and a few bits on maggot. I think I may becoming a little unpopular with Alan, as moments after he caught a Tench I caught a bigger and better one, thats two sessions on the trot that I've done this :)
