Well, I managed one two hour session. But I liked it. I visited a few times just to look round and soak up the atmosphere. As a couple of marsh-fishers, it stands at the northern edge of some of our mutual haunts. I enjoyed walking the paths to the rear of the ponds and looking out across the marshes. You can watch the breeze gathering for miles; quite a spooky location. Be lovely to see what you pull out. I've enjoyed a winter of 'bits'. Very short trips. A few decent pike, lots of small perch. Spotted some short eared owls and lots of kingfishers. But I haven't seen a barn owl this year. Got a call at the end of December to inform me that a barnie was hunting in daylight hours down on the Pegwell Country Park. That was in the gap after the rain so it must have been hungry. Be great to go down there at night some time to spot them. I seem to be doing more game and sea fishing these days. I'm looking forward to the new trout season in April. And then bass in May... But I still want a ten pound tench from those dykes... Gareth Craddockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05604018188167465281noreply@blogger.com
