Story: Ash Day session on the lake on my own. Have kept one rod in a spot that was always productive last year but has not produced this year. Worked out that this was due to silt and the baits and freebe's being lost. Used a lighter lead and critical hook bait with pop up corn and longer hair. Success, 26lb and 20 lb mirrors and also two 16lb commons from another spot that has produced on most occasions this season. Great day thanks Ash Regards Nick
