Well the weather made my mind up for me, rain in the midlands or fair and cloudy in the south..no contest, so with a South African friend in tow I set out for Bewl water. We arrived in perfect conditions and found fish on the surface everywhere around 7lb creek and the cages. Could I catch them....in a word NO!, Darren had a fish on a black buzzer but after 3 hours hard work that was all we had to show for it. Finally I gave in to temptation and put on an orange booby and started pulling it on a DI3 line. While still not catching anything at least there were a lot of follows. We moved to the main bowl where the majority of the anglers fishing Lexus pairs event had chosen to fish and dropped into a drift behind Tim Ashman, He had caught a few on the DI3 and booby already and I soon started to get takes and had three nice fish in 30 minutes. The breeze calmed down a bit and it got sunnier killing the action so I changed to the DI5 and began to catch again. All the fish were full of Daphnia. A reasonable days sport.
