syholl Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Is this place being overfished now....? Had planned to go up last Friday night, but when i phoned to book a peg it was full...!!! Is this just a busy night, or is it always like this now...? If so, i won't be going back. It was fairly peaceful last year, i even had the place to myself a couple of times on a Friday...

syholl Posted July 12, 2008 Report Share Posted July 12, 2008 Yeah, unfortunately i can't get any time off in the week this year, so i won't be going back there again i don't think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmo Posted July 23, 2008 Report Share Posted July 23, 2008 Im going up to Six Islands lake this weekend for 24hrs, it will be my first time at the lake so fingers crossed. Has anyone been up there lately and what is the weed situation like? my chosen bait will be double halibut pellet hair-rigged at least that will keep the tiddlers off, any tips or good info on the lake plus i take it itrs not the best water for backleads?

salokcinnodrog Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 willpenny77New Member Posted: 10th Aug 2009 23:51 Post subject: Willowcroft Report Me and my mate have fished willowcroft's six islands loads over the last month or so, have caught fish all over the lake in all conditions...more people there weekends...so book...we usually fish tuesday-wednesday, havent realy had too many problems with weed providing you have a rough look with marker first...the fish will dig it out dont worry!!! Caught loads of carp and cats...broke both pb's 31lb6oz mirror and 32lb1oz catfish...loads of different types of bait working...particles/pineapple or CELL for the carp...pellet/meaty bolies for the cats...small compact amounts of bait seem to be working better...method feeder???...although give everything a try...gook luck hope this has been a help!!! Im there this tuesday wednesday if anyone is comming down...will let you know how it goes... willpenny77 Posted: 13th Aug 2009 18:20 Post subject: Update Just got back from a 48 hour session...got on very well...up all night both nights...14 cats (biggest 24lb7oz)and 1 mirror (21lb3oz) banked...lost far too many (again). Pellet working really well...swims 4,5,6,7,8,12 all producing fish...everyone was up still at 4am! Would like to remind everyone please check to make sure you rigs are 'safe', lost a large cat close to the bank after 30 mins of fighting and found my rig increadbly tangled around an anglers rig from that night that was in no way 'safe' please check to see if the fish will be able to throw the hook if you get snapped off...please post your own reports so we can all help eachother out just the same as if we were on the bank...finally one of the big cats (5ft long+) was caught last week from swim 12. Cheers and good luck spookydooky New Member Posted: 28th Sep 2009 21:38 Post subject: Hi am booked on there the 9th till the 11th october not fished here befor wanted to know a bit more about this rule - No braid to enter the fishes mouth unless plastic coated. now as i understand it it meens no braided hook links at all so its mono line only unless its coated neaver come across this ruleing befor any were i have fished so just wanted to get some ones views on how they see this ruleing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
