coventrycarpleads Posted June 29, 2011 Report Posted June 29, 2011 Hi mate i used fish there years ago but it has never been a big fish water it used to be a good runs water but that has changed now and you don`t see the carp in there like you used to probably gone walkies the biggest i had out of there was about 16lb ,people used to say there were twenties in there but i never saw one and never met anyone else who did if you live local it might be worth having a walk around on a nice day and see what you can find but don`t hold breath on finding too much Quote
busdaddy Posted July 1, 2011 Report Posted July 1, 2011 Deans right most of the carp have been stolen and you never see anything around these days - hasn't been for a good few years - also take your baseball bat as its no country retreat lol Quote
shorti Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Alright mate, I drive past trittford mill on the way home from work, I've had a quick look at it but from a few stories it's never convinced me to go down to give it a try. See a fair few pole or float fishing for silvers on my way past in the evening, so it might be worth asking them if they know of any or been broke. From what I got told when I looked into it alot of the carp grew legs and moved home. I wouldnt fancy taking my tack down there if on my own, some of the people hanging round there in the day dont look too friendly Shorti Quote
shorti Posted July 5, 2011 Report Posted July 5, 2011 there was a match on there tonight when i drove past, might be worth finding out how often it is and go down at the next one see what they've had? Quote
mikeyledger11 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Posted July 6, 2011 thanks for comments people. So would u all say it aint worth doing a session down here then? Ill have to ckeck out 1 of the matches on there Quote
slsutton Posted July 29, 2011 Report Posted July 29, 2011 Went there today with my mate, about the 4th time I've been Seen a few on top looked a decent size, also seen a nice orange/yellow koi cruising around, We had 6 rods between us and totally blanked, tried different methods, chod, zig, Method feeder, pop ups, bottom baits, pellets, Bottom has lots of silt, n snaggy, place is a waste time, never caught from there so will not be going back! Rather pay a tenner at earleswood ten mins down the road Quote
busdaddy Posted July 31, 2011 Report Posted July 31, 2011 Good to hear you've seen some decent fish - haven't heard that for a good while - dont give up if you've seen them - its a totally unpressured lake try pre-baiting a spot for a week before hand and give it another go you might dig up a real treasure!
