Chris and I headed to Blagdon at 3pm and arrived to find conditions perfect! Overcast and warm with light SW wind...but how often does it transpire that "perfect" conditions mean you struggle? And thats what happened. Began on Cheddar water but nowt so moved to Butcombe shore...Chris missed 2 pulls and it wasnt until 6 that i had, and missed my first offer. At 7pm i managed to get a 1.5lb rainbow on a cruncher shortly after missing another pull, but the lack of trouty activity meant a move back to Cheddar where it was by now flat calm but with only the odd fish moving and little hatch of fly. I got one more fish (pic) on a cruncher again but despite us both trying dries for the occasional showing fish we headed home beaten!
