Blogging on Regardless

Once again I have been away from the bank for way too long, this time a nasty head-on car crash enforced a lengthy lay off. Thankfully both I and my family are now almost fully recovered.

When stepping onto the banks of nearby Meadowlands Fishery (again) with my Dad it seemed like an almighty release after the trials and tribulations of the previous few weeks, a few hours fishing was to be just the tonic I needed.


Due to a match taking up the majority of the pegs on the fishery we found ourselves in the roadside bay pegs once again, this suited me just fine as it was nice and quiet although the water itself was a little flat for my liking while the main body of the lake had a tempting surface ripple.


We both caught carp to around six pounds or so on the usual straight lead and pellet tactics but, in truth, the fishing was unspectacular and, in all honesty, I didn't really care, sometimes it's nice just to be able to get out there and enjoy your sport.
