Some of the most exciting times ever had on a reservoir were drifting a floating fry and hopper (orange of course) in the margins.
Sorry, too many words, I need a rest.

What's a hopper?Originally posted by OrangeHopper
There's usually a lot of ducks and gulls on reservoirs at this time of year. The gulls feed on the refuse on land fill sites, then fly to the reservoir for a paddle. Then we drink the water. Tasty.
Seen any Smew? I do like those birds.Comment

Hoppers are more subtle than boobies or nobblers.
Smews visit Dungeness where I caught many a small tench in the shadows of the sound mirrors and the twin magnox and advanced gas cooled atomic power stations.
Ah so!Comment
