Tench again

Another lovely evening at a local pond.
Got there at 5pm and fished till 9.
Had some Roach to about 8oz on corn, and a couple small carp to about 2lb one on corn and one on bloodworm paste.
Weather has been sunny and warm last two days, but this day was mild and overcast. perfect.
I sat with fresh tea from my kelly kettle, and at 9pm when I packed up it 'just' started to rain, so timing was perfect :-)

I was very lucky and had 3 of my target species, and this time took some pictures.
Interestingly, all 3 were females.


5:15pm
5lb 8oz on corn


6:20pm
5lb on corn


7:30pm
4lb 8oz on bloodworm paste

....and then, after casting under a dark tree, I had a bootstrap eel, on corn !!
Ever caught an eel on sweetcorn before? me neither...


Tench, Roach, Carp and eels. Not sure Ive ever had that variety before in just 4 hours fishing.
