Tench 2026

[Cliff Turner]

another blank for me yesterday, did have one hook up but the hook pulled (very frustrating !), second take resulted in a very large eel, Im guessing a good 5lb+, def a pb but I managed to unhook it without netting thankfully.

It's a fisher Smurf

 

[Michael Brough]

My week of intense fishing continues as my wife, who is away helping a friend clear her mum's house as she is now in residential care, phoned to say she will not be back until Monday. They are calling in the 'Sort Your Life Out' team, this women was a massive hoarder.
Well the car thermometer read 11C at 6.45, with rain during the night and low pressure so I was optimistic. After a couple of hours I was beginning to feel my optimism was misplaced. My float fished maggots and corn had been ignored. Changed to worm, and after a couple of obligatory perch, two tench arrived, no great size barely 2lbs but much appreciated.
