1bigcarp Posted October 21, 2007 Report Posted October 21, 2007 done another night and guess what i blanked again,had a few bleeps at 8ish and 1 single bleep at 3 o clock,it was a clear cold night with a touch of ground frost in the morning.the lake was very calm through the night,not a ripple on it,and very little in the way of fish crashing and topping in the night .maybe it would of been better with a bit of wind on the lake,who knows.the bloke next to me also had nothing although he has been there since thursday and had one catfish and he was in the digger swim fishing into the weed.oh well better luck next time watch this space jas Quote

1bigcarp Posted April 3, 2008 Report Posted April 3, 2008 hi andy hows it going i had a ride down today no one there though,the water has certainly gained some depth since i was there last,couldnt see a great deal of weed didnt walk all the way round,do you know if its been treated at all since last year.have you heard what the membership cost is for this year,is it the same as last year.you will have to let me know when you are down there and i will come and have chat with you cheers jas Quote
jobi Posted April 5, 2008 Report Posted April 5, 2008 was thinking about having a session on here soon. do a lot of kids fish down there like the old lake. heard about the weed can it be real bad in the summer ? thanks Quote
1bigcarp Posted April 5, 2008 Report Posted April 5, 2008 hi mate it dosen,t get full of kids like the old its a lot better,the weed is quite bad but only on the backside of the lake but you can still catch fish from there ,andya84 knows all about that.when it first opened it was rife with weed all over but bob has done a good job of getting rid of the majority of it. cheers jas Quote
