walshey Posted August 30, 2008 Report Share Posted August 30, 2008 not been there since 2005 but its a cracking lake. i fished it using 3 peices of toffee flavoured giant maize over a bed of hemp and maize and had great results. cant remember how fish i caught but one night i had three 40's !! Get on the edges of where gravel meets weed and you cant go wrong. Ive been ther twice and have found that swims 1,2,5,6 and 14 have a been most productive. I was on swim 1 and 2 with my mate and we had loads. only downside when i was there last was the weed, every fish we had tore staight in really thick weed and we had to land all our fish from a boat. I have heard that the weed is lot better now so hopefully you will be ok. have a good one, im sure you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonypowell Posted September 2, 2008 Report Share Posted September 2, 2008 Great lake.Best advice is to listen to the baliff Mick Hall.No need to put piles of bait in.Find the clear spots using a boat(dont leave markers out) and put hook bait and a few free offerings out.Weed not such a problem now although there are some areas where its a little thicker.Some cracking 40/50's in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
