2024 - October 26th - Nyköping Bro

Change the clocks tonight so we all get an extra hour in bed ..........will the river fish today , surely it should do after the last two weekends huge catches ........anyway this is how it went .......

💩💩💩💩💩💩

Decided to feeder fish today however when setting up my gear there was a large black thing in the water about 50 metres away that disappeared , so i thought , Beaver ? Until it popped up again looking at me and it was Seal.

It continued to surface and submerge over a 100 metre distance over the next hour and in that hour i had no bites . It was only later i caught 5-6 Bleak on dead maggots so that was it for me , the Seal had spooked the fish and how many more Seals were in the area ? They could have been feeding all night as either side of the water was street lamps .

The closest it came to me about 15m away

So i decided to pack all the gear away and go and visit Stefan out on the piren . I first visited the other side .

Beautiful day now with the sun and no wind

Looking back towards the bridge  and the opposite side where i was fishing to the right of the boat with two masts

I spoke with Stefan but never visited him as i wanted to visit the Feeder cup match length . He was now saying he only had about 10 roach.

I arrived at the easy section (pegs 8 and 9 approx.)

Both pegs quite clear 

I think about peg 7 ish and quite clear 

 

The swing chair area with Dog walk was quite clear but obviously will need further work early next year but i would say less to do so over a period of years the pegs will be less in repair .

Over to the Elite section on the boards 

Probably the least maintenance peg  , always clear
