are you fishing the carp lake? i fished it last week and had 17 fish out. The biggest was only 10lbs but there are some massive fish hiding in there! i fished the disabled peg with a mate and was casting into a big gravel patch that i found with the marker rod.

 

I would recomend that you take a rake, marker rod, quite alot of pellet or groundbait and some fishy flavoured boilies (prawn or halibut).

a bit weedy at the mo is it , their a party of 5 off us going , did any bigger then 10lb come out during ur stay their ??yeh m8 we are fishing the carp lake

[tobyperrett]

Im back down there this weekend to try a different swin nearer the island this time so will let you know how it goes. have you ever fished any of the lakes down there before??

How did you get on? Heading out this weekend for 48 hours!!

[tobyperrett]

yeh, how did u get on mate, i fished there again 2 weeks ago and had a 28lb 2oz. think its the biggest that been out in a while. the only bad thing about it was that it didnt put up a fight at all lol!!

[funkyfella]

well it was very quiet , their was 5 off us we all got 2 each but not till sat mornin tho , lot off 3lbs we brought out but dont count them , weight ranged from 14lb common to 24.5lb mirror , m8 got think weighed 22lb koi carp , waiting for pics then will show , fishin on top had no joy, next to island fished really well.squid and octopus worked a treat for all of us . but beware very weedy and lots off rats and nat so go prepared with mozzie killer.
