That side of the lake opened my eyes abit as its about 2ft shallower than the road side.... Thats what we found on the deeper. On average about 4ft that side, side of aerator on road we got 7.6ft. finchey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 That's what was also thinking, I need to put more confidence in using Zigs, I've used them but not to best my ability... If I'm out next Friday I will deffo have at least 1 on a zig. yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 99% of waters at this time of year they're feeding for an hour or two at most first thing in the morning. They're cold blooded creatures and they're still warming up. All they want is temperatures. On the water I fish there's not been a bite off the deck since November. In the last week 25% of the stock have come out on zigs. The conditions are PERFECT for it.👍 Golden Paws, ... and finchey 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me spodding over zigs is only good for overstocked places. On waters that aint stacked you'll just scare them off. Don't be afraid to just have three bits of black foam out there. You'll only need one red letter day to see how deadly it is. ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 1 of those on this lake... Day session had 24 bites, landed 21 fish but fishing on the deck in the shallow area.... Nothing massive but there is around 200+ fish in here, good head of doubles not many pushing the 20lb mark, handful maybe. Will try just zigs 1st, then if bites do come, introduce abit of bait I think. yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't really need the adjustable zigs for fan, being so shallow, I just put 2 pva nuggets on my hook to stop tangles. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
