If any of you guys are in the East Midlands and find yourself looking in the Derby area try Weston Moat Fishery ..nice and unspoild limited night fisherman fish up into the mid 20's in abundance with onle old bird reaching mid 30's westonmoatfishery.co.uk

Weston Moat fishery is not too bad few nice carp in there westonmoatfishery.co.uk is there site

its so seasonal there, Maggots in the winter, false snails in the spring. Corn is always worth a try. Plus because they are so well fed and its quite pressured the slightest thing knocks them off the feed. On the side banks the features may as well not be there casting into the middle of the lake seems to get the results., either way its worth looking at the water and the conditions and be prepared to adapt, if a guy on the far bank catches on a zig the odds are the fish are in the upper layers

Well the curry was nice !!! 1 bloke ..A young local expert who appeared to be familiar to the fishery, caught 10 Yes 10!! and guess what with black foam over a bed of pellets and corn on a zig 4 foot off the bottom. I love it when I take to my clothing and headrests in the car with the scissors to get black foam. ..I had 1 run middle of the night dropped as I got to my rods. We all know that you will only stand a really good chance of catching on 1 of 4 hot pegs, 4, 6,7 ,13 and as word gets around and people read forums like this there will be a 5 years waiting list for these pegs, it’s like a big game of hook a duck over there! no one fishes to the features they just spod out bucket loads of bait into the middle and hope for the best. I think a big fish looks allot better that a fattened fish..Hey maybe that’s just me. Plus Rob Hales is not a man of his word either, following a complaint, I was given a discounted session at the Monument where I would just pay the £30 to fish, also Rob himself was supposed to visit the fishery, say hello and give some tips and advice for my session as way of an apology, neither happened, I was charged £40 to fish, and I received no visit at all, but at least this time the manager on Duty, Dave was very helpful and a nice guy, I am copying in the monument on this posting. I will not be going back

I am there for the third time this weekend..third time lucky I hope. In my experience so many methods have worked for one or two people at one time or other. Bed of maggots with a bunch on a hair clip bed of corn with 3 on a hair. I have got peg 2 this time and I am going to bait up a 2m circle in the margin by the boat with corn and leve that one there all weekend, and the other rod I am going to mix it up every 4 hours with boilies, stringed..bagged..smashed and spodded going to try the SbS and the other ones they do there if all else fails gonna hit my own brand of Chokkie and Nut !! kif none of that works I am gonna go and get me a curry on the way home

I blanked there in September on peg 10, It was on the whole quite a good experience not alot coming out though while I was there, i am involved with a fishery and we would be worried if only 12 fish a week were coming out, no matter how big they were. Maybe people will stop going other big venues are pulling 40's 50's and even 60's out on 36hr tickets now, even in the winter minths due to go again soon, see how we get on then, if I was the owner though I would read threads like this and what others have to say. People can turn quickly an not bother going at all
