I arrived at 7.30am on a very windy and blustery day, I chose the last peg at the far end of the pool were it was very sheltered.
It is a very pretty pool, but a little bit too close to the main road:

I set up a float rod, with insert waggler and fished close to an overhanging bush in about 4' of water.

Clearly this was the hot spot as there were about half a dozen floats hanging in the tree. It would have been ideal for a pole, especially given the lightening bites, however the peg was cut into the bank so there was no room behind for a pole.
Fishing with maggot and caster brought a bite a chuck, very hard to hit, from roach & rudd. Switching to corn or pellets did not bring any bites.
I had some very noisey companions for the day who also liked my loose feed.
I ended up with a load of roach, rudd and the odd skimmer and left at 14.00 to go home and warm up.
