hoodlum Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 just came home today after 24 hours, full of weed. Few clear spots but pain in the bum finding and hitting them. We had nothing, nobody on the big lake had anything either when we were there. personally, i'd go up to Linnear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshpratley Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Orchid Lake is not for the inexperienced carp angler, there are plenty of runs water which would be more suitable for those that expect fish to be climbing up their rods. For the angler that is prepared to work the rewards are there to be had Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules007 Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I have to say orchid is a superb lake, its not a runs water but the fish are worth catching if your prepared to put in the effort, good luck with which ever lake you choose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
