big carp in essex


Recommended Posts

where abouts do you fish in colchester on a day ticket and have you ever fished paxmans waters if you dont mind asking :wink:8)

 

Mainly Brookhall at Tiptree and Fennes at Braintree, always catch so it's worth going. I've also tried Newlands Hall in Chelmsford, way too busy for me. I intend to go to Cuton Lakes on the A12 and a new water at Leavenheath which is supposed to be good.

 

Never fished Paxmans, wouldn't know how to join.

A very big thank you to fellow carp.com members x2gsd and gazmeesh, for taking me on a 24 hr session over a olivers lake, I had such a laugh with you guys. gazmesh...your massive cat fish was amazing....and just when I thought I was going to blank again, I managed a lovely 9lb ghost carp just as we was packing up!

Please, please, please lets do it again soon!!

Breakfast was 3 sausages loads of bacon beans and an egg, u even had brown sauce. :!:

Yer I understand what you mean...Why take fishing so seriously that it effects your ability to be civil to your fellow fisherman...Those lads over at Bov need reminding its a sport.

The strange thing is the guy that cast right over our swims was after tench...I think!

didnt really expect to catch though :roll:

 

Well what's the point of going there then.

 

Cause the smallest fish is 15lb with the added bonus of the odd cat to 30lb :wink:

 

Doesn't it get boring knowing you're gonna catch every session, it would for me. Half of it is the uncertainty.

I went to Bov 1 for the bank holiday Monday, Not even a sniff of a line bite or a nice sreaming run...In fact there was about 7 other fisherman there and nobody caught a thing.

So at half 2pm we packed up and went less than a mile away to a day ticket water, 5 quid for 1 rod... We spent till 8pm fishing there and had some lovely fish (carp) the biggest was a double, we had a great time!!

We caught about 15 odd fish each!

That is a big fat porky pie that the farmer keeps telling everyone, my biggest fish from there was bang on 14lb and I have had about 30 odd carp between 8lb and 1lb, caught on maize.

From the predator lake...? With all due respect, I think not.

Right hands up who really beleives that there is not a fish under 15lb in the preditor lake at weeley???

 

My biggest is 14lb but I am the first to addmit that I am rubbish.

I have caught loads of little carp from that lake and made sure that they ended up in the match lake next to it.
