Roll On Next Year
By Derek Morris on
Philip Moore - Roll on next year. We had a great time. Good stay and perfect hosts!!! After a slow start, just picking off the odd fish under the bushes, James had the big common at 48lb 12oz. By Tuesday/Wednesday we started to see signs of fish, so we increased the feed. I fished the home swim to the left of the island and caught in the middle and bushes to the left. I smashed my PB 3 times and we clocked up 2 lake records.
Fishing tactics: James fished the far bank, getting his fish from under the tree line to his right. Derek fished the left middle swim. Smokey Jack snowman worked best.
Catch: 4 x 40s (including a lake record common at 48lb 12oz.), 6 x 30s, 3 x 20s and a lake record grass carp at 20lb (no photo).
