The picture above just about sums up my first tench session of the year. As so often happens I picked a swim that tench moved into at various times, even over my feed, but apart from two or three possible line bites the bobbins remained motionless for the best part of two days.
I've noticed everywhere I have fished for tench that when they are bubbling in my swim I hardly ever catch them. They're frustrating red-eyed buggers!
Not to worry, so long as you learn something a blank isn't wasted. From this session I learned that my waders leak...
