its nice when you dont get any kip now and again but your guranteed that kind of fishing evrytime you go there. glad the info was of soem use.

i would try and spread your selves about as the fish realy do keep tight to your own margin. try and make as little desterbance as possible. aprt from the isalnd there are no features all clay bottom and very shallow. big beds of ground bait worked when i used to fish it but your setting your self up for lots of little ones. fish tiny amounts of bait. reposition your hook baits every 30 mins. ive casted out on there a few times and as i was pulling the line to set the bobbin the line has pulled out of my hand with a fish taking it on the drop.

forgot to mention they love bread. i take 15 loafs with me . as evry bodies backing up start feeding bread and keep feeding even through the night and you will catch the bigger fish of the top right the way through the night. there are a few low 20s in there but you have to fight your way through smaller fish. no point in taking a bedchair you wont be getting any sleep.

m8 any one who tells you that theres a thirty in there is telling porkies. ive done loads of nights up there a few years back. litterally any peg and you will bag up. fish the lake on the right as you go in to the fishery. in the day only drop a hook bait half way across to the isalnd at night drop your hook baits 3 inches of your own margin. all the big fish are in the margins at night. keep away from pop up and anything fluro in colour. just bags or a tiny amount of bait on each hook baits works realy well. a word of warning though at night you get a lot of poachers coming down to the lake. they turn up at 2am catch the fish and are gone by 3am. ive nevr had any trouble with them but its always worth staying out of there way.

he amazes me . he catches where ever he goes. i do know that he puts a great deal of effort in though. why canrt i catch liek that?

i think you might of been there the same time he did the article. he did winkle one out as he walked to the rods to reel them to give it kneck.

nick did you read the article in one of the carp mags about swp dave lane was on it.very good reading realy but so is all off dave lanes stuff.

tamworth taz if you only live 2 mins away from the birchmoore stretch its worth a look at the lamb waters. the one behind the locked gate then the river next to it. plus birch moor is very cheap for a ticket so you might aswell join both clubs.

use a korum method feeder.make sure you keep the pole close to the water when you play the fish becuase if you have a hook pull you dont want the feeder smashing through a £2000 pole.

figure of 8 .but add the swivel on first then tie the figure of 8. with practice and nimbal fingers you can get the knot to touch the swivel.

Excuse Me? First point, check your grammar, it makes posts easier to read and understand! Second Point, Me, Top Angler? I have little Desire to be a Famous Top Angler. I go fishing for my own reasons. To get away from the Terrors of my Personal Life, to relax, and because I enjoy fishing. If I catch its a Bonus. I put my own effort in. I compete on MY OWN TERMS! I also don't fish the same waters or have quite the same want of Publicity. Ron Buss is a Good Angler, he has caught more Big Fish than I ever have. He also has the backing of some mighty powerful sponsors and again Good Luck to him. Third Point, I was pointing out that I have been using that same sort of rig for over 15years. Its also called a Shock rig, Running Shocker Rig, and probably more names depending on where its used. Fourth Point, Check out the other people who have seen this rig before it was re-named and re-published. Forgive the sarcasm, I have a habit of it every now and again. PMSL i wouldnt want to see you in a fight nick

i did notice this with a certain knot sorry i dont no the name but i tried a few other knots with it and it was fine. its the only braid i can honestly say ive never had a problem with especially while playing a fish

KIK BAK all the way. and it comes in clear or green

middy make one thats a dark brown its called dacron and u get 20 metres for 2.50 its realy realy good if you can find it becuase hardly any body sels it. plus it takes on the silt so it blends in well .

brilliant m8 obviously no good on gravel unless you can get one that blends in well. ask the balif ofthe water before you use it just incase they have a problem with it though.
