A short morning session

A couple of hours free before work starts and just time to see if conditions have improved much at the river. 

Yes, the level is down a few inches, but would chub be on the feed?  I fished two spots, both quite close to the car.  Float fishing sweetcorn in the first swim produced no bites at all.  Ledgering sweetcorn in the second produced half a dozen small fish - 4 chub and 2 roach - but nothing bigger than perhaps 8oz. 

I have actually not caught many small fish over the last 12 months so in some ways it is good that there are some around (at least for the long term).  But still no decent sized fish appearing. 

The forecast is for more rain this weekend, and my new plan is to fish into the dark a couple of evenings next week.
