Hi Trev. April for me this year. But any shallowish (6ft) water will be worth targeting in a warm spell now.Tight lines to you sir.Chris.

I've caught tench early in the spring and record the water temperature now too! I've caught them with a water tempaerature of 10 Degrees, never had
much below this temperature, always worth a try though!

I've had some nice back-end of the season tench but by April the fish should be very active and therefore locating them tends to be easier.

Dave,
Agree with you to some degree but after all these years tend to go with the flow now, that said wouldnt dream of fishing in flowing water....... |

I used to think that i would never fish in "the close season" but the trouble is that May is just such a nice month to be out fishing and Tench in
particular are in much nicer condition then than come mid June/July when they are puffing up to spawn.
Mid - late April start for me this year (nearly said season!) weather depending. |
