Happy New Year all, welcome to me first post of 2025 and an update on how the fishing went over the last month. Weather was a major factor as it has been very varied, from strong winds and storms to mild overcast days, heavy rain, frost, and mild sunny days or at least part sunny days.  This did not put all the anglers and those who did venture out where most if not all caught fish, some targeting the stunning roach and rudd  others just carp. The prize for top anglers of the period must got to two London lads who visited for the first time. This is the review they sent to me ,  "Had a lovely day on the 31 st of December and between me and my friend , fishing three rods between the two of us we landed a total of 36 carp between us ( ranging from 3-10 lb ) on relatively simple ledger rigs".  They were also very impressed with the quality of the carp and I am sure that on they next vist to Pembrokeshire we will see them again.  Another who did well was Tom a local angler who visited on a very frosty day. He had such a good day that he came back again a few days later, on both occasions he caught some stunning carp, again to double figures in weight. 
On Christmas Eve we also had a visit from an Egret , it is the first and only time I have seen one at the fishery , infact I dont ever recall seeing in one in this area of South West Wales before. I do not think it managed to feed much , if at all,  as I have not seen it since. I did managed to get to photographs through a window hence the pictures are not as clear as I would have liked but at least I did get a record of it's visit.
