2025 - How's your weather today?

Washing/drying day today. We have had quite a bit of rain last few days. I thought so anyway, the water butts are all full now. But when I checked where I dug up our potatoes, it was only damp for about 3" depth and still like dust any lower so still need quite a bit more rain for the soil to be anything like normal.

The reservoirs I fish at are not quite at bottom level and have came up a few inches this last week or so. I have seen them a lot lower but they still have quite a way to go to reach winter levels. You would think that less water would mean there were more fish to catch per cubic metre? Not so, fishing is easier when reservoirs are full!
