Back to Monk's lake for another day, the weather never seems to be great down there, however with a cross wind blowing, at the draw I got peg 62 on the island in the middle. I'd never fished this lake however I decided on the 2 margin swims and setup the feeder rod incase things didn't work out.
At the all in I fed both margin swims and started to fish the left hand swim, the float bobbed under and a small bram was soon in the net. Next cast under again this was certainly bigger this thing was like a torpedothe elastic came out the pole to around 25 feet, I finally managed to net the fish it's was a barbel of around 2lb, this was a first for me as I'd never caught one before. I managed to catch a few more fish down that margin, I decided to give it a rest and and try the other side, this resulted in a few small carp of around a pound mark, then a run of small skimmer bream to 4oz.
I swaped back onto the other margin and continued to caught barbel and the odd small carp, I noticed that Jeff D was catching some better carp on the feeder, with only an hour to got I swapped on this , I managed a run of around 10 carp in the hour however I should have changed to this alot sooner and would have had a bigger weight.
I also managed to catch a golden tench which was another first for me.
