Hereford Fishing

We had earned a free day fishing at the C&CC site at Hereford from previous visits so this was a good opportunity to use it.

It was a generally overcast day, but not cold, good for a days fishing in fact. The big carp had other ideas unfortunately, so we found ourselves catching the smaller silver fish. Roach and bream 'gave themselves up' in enough numbers to keep us busy all afternoon.

Rosemary caught a small perch, much to her delight as it was a first and I finished the day with a really nice golden carp that had come round the margins to collect the bait that frustrated fishermen throw in when they are packing up.

Not such a bad day after all, but it was getting distinctly autumnal by dusk and rain was forecast overnight.
