  1. I went last week, very weedy tried to find clear spots with my marker thought I had but wasn't convinced but cast to the spots anyway had one run and nothing else all day, not even a single bleep...anyone fish there got any tips??
  2. Not an out and out runs water but I've always had some sort of contact with a few carp and sometimes managed to land a few... it never seems to be that busy during the week either so plenty to choose from, that's if you're going on a week day, not sure about the weekend
  3. Higham Farm Nr Chesterfield 4 lakes to choose from
  4. Hello good luck with your search...
  5. I thought it was more of a pike water?? I used to go down in the winter spinning for them, had a few too
  6. I fish most of the time with mono/fluro. I have some braid but just prefer the monos...don't know why maybe someone can convince me to use braid a bit more

    zigs

    I use fox zig/floater hooklink, works for me, hooks are some fox ones in size 10 which are a very small 10, armapoint I think

    zigs

    I use one of these but not with an in-line lead I have the slik ring and link for attaching the lead it comes up every time no problem
  9. I've had more success using size 10/12 (gardner muggas) hooks rather than chod hooks which tend to only be available in the bigger sizes but the fish I catch are in the 10/20 lb range

    I've been looking for something different to try, think I'll give this a go thanks for posting Does that say KORDA mouthtrap?? Danny would be proud
  14. Thanks!! I was struggling with this too
  15. Know what you mean about the boilie thing...maybe I'll try sweetcorn, luncheon meat etc...it was only an idea when I get bored and see any fish near the surface have a rod set up with float/zig and have a go
  16. Thanks Cobleyn looks like I'll be trying a zig then
  17. Ok can anyone tell me why I couldn't try float fishing a bait rather than zig rig to try the different depths?? Only difference I can see is the hair rigged bait would be upside down and if carp tend to go down onto food they would see a big hook just above the bait...apologies if this is a crazy idea in advance or maybe it's a brilliant idea and I could sell it to korda for £1000s
  18. Do you mean this one... Higham Farm(Claycross) Day Ticket: On the bank price's. Contact : Brian.. 01773 602741
  19. I went to Blakemere in late Jan it's a really beautiful place and seems well stocked with good quality fish, the guy who owns it made a point of coming to see me on the bank and asked me loads about how my day had been, he's also continually working on the place to make it better, I'm sure if you go you'll enjoy it I did! The swims are really well made up with plenty of room for bivvy etc and aren't muddy or waterlogged...what more can I say!
