Had a fascinating morning on the River Frome (Copse section). Started in the pallet swim with small drennan swim feeder and maggots and cheese hookbailts. Couple of tentative plucks on maggot. Put off a bit by a couple of walkers who were bemoaning the decline in the river. Both talked about the good old days and gave me the impression that the river rarely delivers these days. Both put it down to cormorants.
Anyway I tried the copse section which is pretty unique as a habitat from my experience of River fishing.
Ended fishless but had great fun getting a lump of cheese under some very chubby looking rafts. Couple of gentle plucks that didn't develop into full bites.
I'll be back as its a lovely stretch and I love a challenge.
Whats worked best for you Rob?
