Weed......

Went to a local-ish gravel pit today, not been down there since last winter and was amazed at the amount of weed in the place, worst It's ever been. I don't ususlly mind a bit of weed but this was too much.

Didn't bother doing much fishing :-(

Wow

Thats a hell of a lot of weed

Are you sure you can't get a spinnerbait through that lot

Walter

Wow indeed!....
Take more than a few good frosts to get rid of that lot More like an Icebreaker or Dredger Its like the Bottle Pond Mk2

y could work something like a salad spoon through it

If that's surface weed, I'd happily fire a legered deadbait right in that no problem.
