nice day for tench

seeing as we are having great weather thought i would go out for a few hours and try out the new 8m pole i purchased, now i will probably sell it as it was like holding a lampost!! >:(

but on the flipside within a few minutes of first drop with it i landed a nice 2lb tench!

Tipton canal, was quite clear but bites a'plenty, really good spot for roach, rudd, perch and the odd tench, quietest unspoiled part of the cut i have been to so far, only get the odd jogger go by.

The reason i am going for this pole to start is if i get on ok with 8m then i will give this to my son as he is only 7 and anything bigger than 8m would be too much for him and then get something a lot better for myself, i just dont want to toss money down the toilet if i dont get on with a pole, i ...
