Well had a bit of a sess if you could really call it a session. Well anyways im not classing it as my first session of 2010 as i did not use my kit and wasnt there for very long. Well i was up at 4:30am, actually i never went to bed as i was up all night on carpspace and also doing a very large 50 page assignment for sparsholt. I finally finished the assignement at 4:00am in which i went and got ready for fishing which i was going to meet a friend at a lake at his house with fish in there hitting 20's however we have seen fish a lot bigger. Anyways i made a nice bacon sarnie and a mug of espresso which gave me a bit of a boost. It was now 4:15am and i need to meet my friend at 5am. So i made my way on my bike for a 45minute journey to his house in an extremly fast cold wind have to say not the most enjoyable bike ride i have had. Well i finally made it to his house bang on 5am. He was nowhere to be seen, i range him 4 times and he finally awake and ready to fish at 5:20am which was not a great way to start the fishing. As i came on my bike he supplied tackle and bait, we then had a 20min walk about trying to find anywhere fishable. There was only a very small fishable section which was partly free of ice so me and my friend thought rather than wasting time waking up and stuff might aswell wet a line so we did. Fished two rods right off the edge of the ice with a small critical balance boilie on a KD rig with a pva stick. Well to say the least nothing was caught i went home after 2hrs due to not feeling too good and my friend having had enough and at 12pm i had to go back to college so yea need to get out on to a proper fishery and catch a nice carp. Tight lines everyone
