Just look for the areas of coloured water and for fizzing. Silt is imo the most forgiving substrate to fish, you can chuck almost anything at it, but I'd go with a heli set up and a balanced hookbait bait. My first port of call would be to focus on observation. Your eyes and the fish should tell you what you need to know. Good luck. carpyian 1 Quote
carpyian Posted March 22, 2019 Author Report Posted March 22, 2019 ok yonny thanks for your help mate was there for a few days a day ago but I could see nothing moving but think its just still a bit to cold so the coming month should hopefully produce more results Quote
