Either, depending on what I fancy. Like a challenge but do like to have a day with a constant bend in the rod. What your thoughts?

Can anyone help with good day ticket waters around Spalding, Holbeach Crowland, Boston Wisbech area? Looking for a change and any ideas of good lake with nice carp in.

there is a lake opened for fishing at March, graysmoor i think. its gated with a contact number. dont know anything else about it. or there is a nice one at sawtry fen.

ads dont give you the personal feedback like 1st hand experience.

my wife for Xmas bought me so vouchers from angling lines to go fish in France. has anybody git any advice on where to go? i am aiming to do the trip sometime in April. im wanting a water 5-7 acres with a few 40's to go at. any ideas/advice?

No not sure who has the rights to fenhouse drove. Im going to be having a change in my fishing this year coming, going to have a go at all course fish not just the carp and cats and all different methods just to freshen things up. Sort of like when i was a young lad. Gona have a good go over the winter trying to bag up on the pole around the local lakes, it will get the grey matter ticking again.

I found that targeting the far side against the field is most productive, fishing about 3-4 of the farbank ( the bank cuts down tight to the far side then plataus back up 3-4 feet from the bank ) fishing the top or just on the back of the downslop is good. Dare i say baitboats are good as you can get right tight or under the overhanging trees. as for tatics anything your happy with and trust will work the same for bait. Think i was using 14mm singles or double 10mms bollies.

ive had carp up to 22lb out of northview on the method, also had some nice fish upper teens on the fly rod all good fun. Im attacking it next year with my new pole, working on a bagging up method. It is annoying with so many people trying to fish the oposite bank there is just no need or thought goes into there fishing or consideration in to other anglers, lke the bite alarms on full blast. Fished lake Helen as well taking some nice carp and a few large gold fish out of there.

fished it many years ago, nice little water. No monsters in there but good fun a bait boat can help get right under the far bank where alot of the fish are. The problem i found was only a couple of good swims and if you get more than 4 people on there its abit crowed for me.

anbody been down lately? is it still fishing? much coming out.

some nice fish then are they the largest out this year?

what sort of thing you looking for in a bait? a mate of mine runs a very good bait company, the range is ace and quality is of the highest standard. the company is Bang on Baits based at Wellingborough, the range is taking some nice hauls of fish both here and France i will pm you the web address, give james a ring and im sure you will find a bait you are loking for and at a good price plus all the back up bits as well

well done mate, was it busy down there? what was the winning tatics for you? has there been much comng out of there do you know?

yes they were and i still have a copy of the book with a very young looking danny fairbrass in it as well.
