muftyboy Posted September 8, 2019 Report 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. yonny, dayvid, snowmanstevo and 6 others 8 1 Quote

elmoputney Posted September 9, 2019 Report 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 ?

elmoputney Posted September 9, 2019 Report 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
framey Posted September 9, 2019 Report Posted September 9, 2019 Guesting lake does that mean you shouldn’t be there either lol Quote

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.

dayvid Posted September 9, 2019 Report 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. Quote
muftyboy Posted September 9, 2019 Author Report 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.
