fishing4fun Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 i could do with some tips on this water. gonna be on there in october on a social, i know its a long way off but any info helps. will be about 25 of us 2 rod limit so alot of lines in water, do the fish dissapear to the middle of lake when it busy or are the margins still worth ago? are there any quite areas of the lake where the fish like to take sanctuary. bait wise will be taking everything cheers for any info u can give Quote
nitronick Posted June 18, 2008 Report Posted June 18, 2008 Anyone fished Sandhurst recently? Havnt fished there for well over a year but got an option to do a sneaky 24 hour session next weekend. As its going to be a short session and I wont have the chance to pop down and have a look around before hand, any one know how its fishing? NitroNick PS:Nick will be happy as I used the search facility to find this thread Quote
trakker77 Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 There is a carp-central social on there next weekend and the lake is booked 27th to 29th Quote
crayonhussy Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 Only been to tri lakes and have not been there for a little while...so unfortunately I can't help you Nick! Quote
marker Posted June 19, 2008 Report Posted June 19, 2008 i was there a month ago and it was fishing quite well but not sure how its fishing right now, i'm not going back until september so i'm a bit out of touch with the place Quote
nitronick Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 Just packed to go for a mid-week session at Sandy Will let let you know I blanked when I get back late on wednesday! ! ! Quote
yumyum Posted September 15, 2008 Report Posted September 15, 2008 1 of my lads was down there last weekend and had nigels fish at 37lb 8oz and im booked on for october 10 - 12. So fingers crossed Quote
marker Posted September 16, 2008 Report Posted September 16, 2008 Just packed to go for a mid-week session at Sandy Will let let you know I blanked when I get back late on wednesday! ! ! i'll be watching for your report mate, i'm down on thursday for 3 nights Quote
nitronick Posted September 17, 2008 Report Posted September 17, 2008 Just packed to go for a mid-week session at Sandy Will let let you know I blanked when I get back late on wednesday! ! ! ROFLMAO! And I did! A very poor session fished from peg 15, not even a bite from 3 rods. Appernetly from the whole lake only 4 fish out whilst I was there. Now I remeber why i stopped fishing there! ! ! Quote
marker Posted September 17, 2008 Report Posted September 17, 2008 looks like i'm in for a hard time then Quote
nitronick Posted September 18, 2008 Report Posted September 18, 2008 looks like i'm in for a hard time then Peg 12 seems to be the "hot swim" at the moment. Try and get in there. Also looks like heavy baiting is not the way to go so stick to PVA bags, stringers or even single baits. Good luck! Quote
marker Posted September 22, 2008 Report Posted September 22, 2008 it was hard fishing nick but you weren't far off, 10 and 11 did most fish, i managed to winkle out a 26lb mirror from peg 13 on friday but i was left high and dry over the weekend when the fish moved up to the car park area good trip though, i didn't blank and the weather very comfortable even if it wasn't carpy Quote
chris_rowland2005 Posted January 24, 2009 Report Posted January 24, 2009 Off for a 48hr session on Wednesday. Anyone got any upto date info on hot swims and tactics for the lake. Cheers Chris Quote
