It’s now Sunday, 17th March, and I’m back out on the Airfield Lake. I arrived at about 1:30 pm, and after looking around for an hour and a bit, I visited Saturday before I went home in the same area.  I’m hoping to spot something, there wasn’t a single sign anywhere. I ended up pitching in an area where I had seen the carp on Friday morning. It was a tricky one, as this area has three swims with access to slightly different areas, and from where I was pitched up Friday/Saturday, you can’t 100% tell where the carp are showing

The Airfield Lake was calling me.

The Airfield Lake is back open, and I’m here on the first day for a quick overnighter. I arrived at about 8 am on Friday morning and was the second person there, another syndicate member was just finishing setting up. The weather is a bit all over the place over the next 24 weeks as well as the following week, which is when I’m planning on getting out here as much as possible, due to finally having my broken tooth removed next Friday. I’m not sure how I will be feeling the following week, then the week after this is the Easter holidays, and the kids are off for two weeks. The second week, the wife is off work and my dad is due to stay.  Hopefully, the weather will have improved somewhat, and we can get out and visit a few places.

First trip back on the Airfield lake, after all the cold weather.

With only 2 trips to go before I head over to the Airfield Lake, I’m back in the same swim after that Scattered Lin or the new big common. If it happens, I will be chuffed, but if not, there’s always next winter or even the odd Summer overnighter.

My daughter came home from college yesterday with a very sad story about one of her old school friends, it made me realise how quickly things can change.
