Baitboat banked and i blanked!!

So, the headline says it all really. Once again i got beaten by Airfield Lakes. As you can imagine i am rather disappointed as i was looking forward to getting on the bank and getting a bend in the rod again.........unfortunately it wasn't to be.........this time!! This means i will have to go back and have another go so its not all bad i guess. Richard, the lake owner says the lake is very up and down. Sometimes on certain days there will be a few fish out other days nothing. I saw one fish out all day.

As far as the banked baitboat goes it was rather unfortunate as the angler was trying to get his bait as close to the island as possible. Unfortunately he wasn't aware there was a ledge before the drop off and consequently banked his baitboat. Not a good start to his days fishing. He did mention swimming in and getting it but being the gent and helpful guy Rich is he said he would rescue the bait by rowing out to it. As sad as it may seem this was the most interesting thing that happened all day. I'm back home planning and thinking of how to attack the water next time.........i wont be beaten and i will land an Airfield carp.

For now.......hope you have more luck than me!
