Opening day of the river fishing season

Long day at Ellenthorpe
Went into 1st entrace, parked near corn dryers.

Fished to the left (downstream) of the gate. Went just around the corner where it narrowed. Had a gap in farside trees opposite me.

Mid river was about 13ft deep and slow flowing.

Fished from 6:30 until 21:00. Had one bite that resulted in one Roach. This was to a maggot on a Dave Harrell 5g Avon float. Never had a knock on feeder on either far side on near pilings on near side. Only tried large baits on feeder.

Saw several Salmon swirling and even leaping.

A small Pike attacked my keepnet and latched onto the Roach. I had to force the Pike off my net. The Roach died later.
