what i did was marker float it and found a nice clay patch at about 60 yards so i spodded about 8 spods out and then method feeder recast every 45mins for first 5 casts then every 2 hr then i just left it in after that and on the other rod onto the spodded patch

like a cage feeder but with only one side you have a short hooklength and book groundbait around the feeder i was using a pinappple boilie on a snowman from edge baits

went on sunday had 1 carp that was 17lb 8oz and 2 bream took me 2 hrs to find the lake:L Lots of fish crashing in the middle of the lake Get on the method feeder or zigs mate

Id watch the horses if i was wid you

If you want our swim pounded with soap then go there if not then pm me;) Thats quite a claim to make Joe Fished it with my dads mate who was on there once got there really early in the morning and saw a GROWN MAN sneaking up and throwing bars of soap on certain swims... Also one Famous angler who shall be nameless was casting out and trying to bump the fish to feel them up as in the winter they bunch up together and hold up

If you want our swim pounded with soap then go there if not then pm me;)

If you want me to be honest the fish in my avatar was from kingsbury but not on the swan. my dads mate told me a lot of the tips for a couple of the pools and knows a lot about the place. i went with him there 5 times all day before i even fished it knowing where the fish are putting a very little bait out just generally looking for fish A VERY BIG TIP is fish in the bays On the lake i had mine from theres 2 bays;) you can find out which lake that is for yourself

not many people know if but one of the other pools holds bigger fish, Get the marker float out and find some clear patches, Move very regulary about 6 times throughoiut the day fish margains

that what i had them on luncheon meat just freelined under the rod tip

lots of little carp and tench wouldnt fish there tbh

i was just flicking it and that to see if it flipped Lmao i look like a idiot now giggleing on the sofa

Was just making some rigs had some pop-ups so decided to try it in my pond, out of 3 different rigs 1 with the tubbing just on the shank didnt look good the hook point was actually facing up as the piece of peeled back braid flipped over so the hook point was facing the pop-up i tried to suck it up with my fingers like a fish would to see if it would flip but it wasnt succesful so i wont use this method that i just mentioned

No and i wouldnt want to. I value my own syndicate far to much to risk fishing Barston didnt tmb slagg of a place and get banned?

Its a good fishery and nigel is a sound bloke TBH TB have you ever fished it?

where that mate Barston lakes is west midlands golf course
