After work tonight I went fishing. Bait was in the water at 19:10 (after some faffing...really must get rigs made up).
Used 1oz method feeder. Dynamite methods ground bait dampened with sweetcorn juice. Got a few good bream like one below.

They do tend to fight like a wet sack.
Then I got into a barbel.....my first ever!!! Fought much harder than the barbel and when i saw those ted find I knew I was into something special!

Also saw two massive carp cruise right beneath my quiver tip!
There's big fish in their wonder if I can tempt them out this summer?!
All in all an excellent trip of just a few hours, well worth the expense of new pestering gear, rod licence and lake membership. Matt Hayes was right, you can't catch 'em sat in your armchair!
