Got some free time in the morning to head out with the feeder, and Trukhaniv never lets you down. From 7:20 to 2pm caught about 80 fish weighing roughly 6kg total, almost everything went back. Just kept a few kilos for salting. From 7 to 10am the 80-65cm rigs were working great, after 11am the bites disappeared, but switched the rigs down to 40cm and things got going again. Same story with the feeders and distance — in the morning 140g at 15-30m, later switched to my new Sherman Pro rod rated for 120g, casting about 50-70m with 80-90g. Caught a ton of small stuff, but the sheer number of bites gave me incredible vibes. Used dark colored mix for bait — worked perfectly (Flagman black roach + Flagman Pro spicy caramel + millet and universal molasses). Towards the end a couple of guys showed up with lighter colored mix which also crushed it (something like vanilla and millet).
