First half of the week was slow and not much showing. Then on tuesday afternoon it went really mild and a bit of cloud cover which seemed to do the trick as i caught on laroussi and the guy on old oaks had his fish at the same time, so it was down to the weather really. Still, i'll be back again for a few trips over next winter. MeHdi has been doing a lot of work on Laroussi and Old oaks cleaning up the swims and taking down the dead trees, and his wife painted out the facilities at laroussi. Nice one MeHdi.

Once again Medi has been working on clearing up the pegs and working on the cabin. Again the weather was very changeable , had to wait for 4 days before it settled but then had 4 fish in 24 hours, and then picked a couple off over the last 2 days. Third fifty of the year, so well chuffed.

Fished another lake the week before and had 7 fish up to just over 30, so while the weather was still mild thought i'd have a go for a big one at Laroussi. Had a chat with Medi when i got there and i had fished Laroussi before in winter and usually a lot of waiting involved so decided to get the rods out on spots i had fished before for the night, then see if there was anything showing the next day. The baits had only been out for about 4 hours , and off one went. 20 minutes later had a PB mirror on the scales at 56lb. Next day had a small common off the same spot. Lost another big fish on the thursday morning. Will be back out there again soon if i get time as the fish are all at there top weight.
