August 2011

August saw me making my own fishmeal based paste which I tried with loads of different flavourings - some worked and others didn't - and trying to use it on a waggler setup - not the easiest!

1st August 11th of 18 with 8lb flat on the Island pond - Couldn't keep the paste on the hook!

10th August - 6th of 9 with 10lb - 12oz on the Woodside Pond

14th August - 5th of 12 with 12lb - 10oz on the Island Pond - Paste staying on hook now

17th August - 15th of 18 with 2lb - 9oz on the Island Pond - All small roach on maggot :-(

19 August - 2nd of 3 with 17lb - 2oz on the Main Loch - V wet and cold

And that was it for August - Lots learned and a bad day's fishing is better than a good day at work!
