h_read Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 Hi all, Just wondering if any of you had and tips for fishing the the Riddings. Favourite pegs? Bait? Ive only had one fish out which was a low 20 mirror and that was last year. Quote
penker Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 How have you been fishing it? Will probably be easier to tell you what your doing wrong then how to fish it? Quote
h_read Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Ive been fishing mainly bags with single hook baits, and firing freebies over the top Quote
Malc 1950 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 Few years ago I used to fish the Riddigs without too much success. However a couple of weeks ago I fished it for the 2nd time this year and had a good result, 20lb 5oz Mirror. Only 3 fish came out on the day, mine being one of them. You might not be doing anything wrong mate as a lot of Anglers don't catch there. Just be patient, the results will come. Quote
Malc 1950 Posted July 8, 2012 Report Posted July 8, 2012 Cheers Guy I don't fish the place much due to the distance so unfortunately I can't help with h_read's problem. I do rate it as a fairly hard water even thought it's w ell stocked small water. Quote
h_read Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Posted July 8, 2012 Nice fish malc, thanks for the advise guys Quote
penker Posted July 9, 2012 Report Posted July 9, 2012 Fish the open water mate, and the margins, ignore all obvious features as they get hammered! Just looking back at my log book I've had 43 fish in the last 8 sessions on there, I had the big common on Christmas eve out of there down the margin Quote
