commonly Posted October 7, 2022 Report Share Posted October 7, 2022 Fingers crossed for you Ouch. My trip has been postponed for a fortnight. I've managed to get a good mate & very good angler I know, a winter ticket.Hopefully improve the knowledge & get onto the fish. My usual buddy hasn't been since all his gear got nicked at Xmas.

elmoputney Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 That was about as exciting as that night got, blanked, I did have some fizzing over my right hand spot then but that's as close as I got, made a right mess of it tbh, should've gone in another swim but etiquette made me choose this one away from the only 2 anglers on the lake there were still fish present but finding spots seemed to send them away,then it was just a bit of a rush job, someone else(a vangler) went in that swim just before dusk and had one within an hour 😢 Annoyed with myself now, and also in deep thought about why I haven't got the same enthusiasm for the place anymore? I've not had the drive and I don't think I've been able to get anything going this year, we shall see might just have a rest from it for a bit and see if that returns kevtaylor, ..., B B and 2 others 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B B Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Going for a afternoon session tomorrow on a course lake should have it to ourselves. Light Feeder rod, float rod and a small spinner setup. The carp usually turn up late in the afternoon as do the perch 🤞 finchey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouchthathurt Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 heavens opened on my few hours out this morning, did 0600-1030am without a sniff.

ouchthathurt Posted October 29, 2022 Report Share Posted October 29, 2022 another day, another venue, a new set of challenges. Yesterdays lake was a silty, disused reservoir. Todays venue is a small, snaggy old gravel pit. Fished small pva bags, 1oz leads on 5” braided hooklinks tight to the margins just off the reeds. had a lil un and a few 5-6lb bream bluelabel, crusian, B B and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

commonly Posted October 31, 2022 Report Share Posted October 31, 2022 Thanks mate, I love it there. Only problem is I can't put the time in, so it's a slow learning process. The fish don't often show. I was up at 4-5 both mornings, when it's dead flat, but couldn't see anything in the 200+ acres. bluelabel, finchey, elmoputney and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
