More like it.
Apaprently #4 had been stocked with a 1000 rainbows and #5 had 300 smallish browns.
Wind was from the North and I started to fish the corner of #5 near the causway.
First of all tryed a cdc with a cove buzzer on a dropper. Had one offer to the cdc in about an hour and decided to go on a booby set up. Fish had been breaking the surface, but rather than feeding think they were just disturbing each other.
Tryed my new Di5 extreme distance and was very pleased with it. Had a 12' leader with an orange blob booby on the dropper and a black and green on the point.
Second cast and bang, had the old tug-tug-pull type bites, only familiar when booby fishing and a few minutes later and after a little bit of arm ache I had my biggest fish from Walthamstow this season, a cracking 4.5lb'er!!!
Had one more on the B&G and one on the orange one.
Sport was pretty sporadic on the boobies but good fun, tryed the floater agian with no pulls.
Think the booby will be the way to go from now on. Also tryed a floater with a site bob fishing at all the depths with a apps bloodworm on the point close to the bottom, and never got a twitch.
Cant wait till I get back (hopefully sunday as the rain is due to arrive monday)!

Charlie sorting out the BBQ for the fillets of the biggie!
PS One bloke in #5 found the shoal of brownies and pulled at least 30 out and returned.
