First the good news, I remembered which particular bramble patch my lure was hanging in so yesterday when we set off through the murk I retrieved it.
This is Beeston Castle in the murk.
I have just realised that I described myself as an inefficient pike fisherman, I did of course mean incompetent, sorry for that.
With all that width of water you would think there would be at least one pike interested.
We headed onwards
through the two Beeston locks, above the stone lock there is one of the odd little circular lengthsmans huts but the most important thing here is
blue warning mesh. Is this the future with C.A.R.T? A complete break with B.W? I can hardly wait.
We turned off onto the Middlewich Arm and moored above Cholmondeston lock and as we are now in winter routine, killing time basically, we spent the day here. A wander down to the
junk antique shop at Venetian Marine was a highlight, lots of badly battered furniture at ludicrous prices, definitely not Antiques Road Show fodder.
Then this evening a rather spectacular sunset,
get a load of the reflection in the cabin side, honestly, Armadillo is not that shiny but I do like the photo'.
Watch this space...........
