muftyboy Posted September 8, 2019 Report Share Posted September 8, 2019 Went to my guesting lake earlier. Saw 3 eastern euros going into my spot. Long story short I found the line they had put out with multiple hooks tied to a bottle under the reeds. The bottle is now full of my urine with the 4 massive hooks positioned perfectly to do some damage when they reach in to pick it up. salokcinnodrog, dayvid, Donnygooner and 6 others 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elmoputney Posted September 9, 2019 Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 I've noticed a few fish right up to the bank lately on the park lake, haven't spotted any lines but do you think that could be why,I know they do come in but it's right close in and I just wondered if it was unnatural, I've not seen how they leave the lines on the bank Anything I can look out for ?

No I get that when I think back though I wasn't sure it was dead natural that's all,that's why I thought it would be good to have an idea what I was looking for yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted September 9, 2019 Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 What I mean is something made me question it having seen it a couple of times in different areas ,it could have been feeding but it also could've been trapped,it went back underwater so I assumed it was the former but I dunno something had me doubt it tbh,and it's something I would like to be able to check tbh as the reeds have also been stamped down quite a lot in that area, and I've never seen anyone fish that swim all the times I've been there so that's why I am keen to know more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So at the end of the session i dragged the lead and rig through the margin and hooked onto it. The thing to look for is some sort of hand reel or a bottle buried under the reeds.

Thanks I will keep my eyes peeled it would be an easy water for them to target as it's no nights and public access Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happens down my club lakes all the time and they are baliffed and fished overnight. elmoputney 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayvid Posted September 9, 2019 Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 But yourself a 4oz grip lead used for sea fishing , that will catch any lines that should be their , also doubles up as an excellent grapnel for clearing spots in the weed just lock it up with a cable tie.

muftyboy Posted September 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) They came back earlier while my mate was there. They didn't hang around long once he started tearing into them. Has them on video now and cut another long story short the 2 of us now have permission to fish the lakes from security as long as we report anyone who looks dodgy and get photographs of them.
