With the MFS two dayer on Friday and Saturday, I wanted to take the opportunity to try something out and the cost cutter was an ideal opportunity. The warm day on Wednesday had me thinking that the fish might have a go on paste, so Thursdays tactic was paste - if it proved anything, its that you shouldn't go into a match with blinkers on and another option or two should be considered and available.
The lovely day that was Wednesday gave way to a cold and wet Thursday and it seemed that the cold rain had sunk straight to the bottom, making my paste attack all wrong. 19 fishing today, i guess the weather cut the numbers down, I drew 126 and pursued my paste attempt, even though it was all wrong, short and long. When paste fishing at Viaduct, its common to see the fish approach the bait by the bubbles, usually when the reach the float, fish on and it buries. Not today, the bubbles came towards the float, the float wobbled and the bubbles carried on past, in the majority of times the fish approached. Suffice to say I DNW, I chucked back about 85lb, which was a long, long way off the pace, but some useful things learnt for the 2 days following.
