bluebirdjones Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 Have you checked their website?  This link shows what tactics they suggest. http://www.wildmoorwaters.co.uk/html/tactics___bait.html  I went there for 2 nights in April 2008, I didn't catch anything but its a nice, well run fishery and I would go back again.  Although its not the biggest of lakes the owner Andy showed us around and he was quite helpful, he suggested which swim to fish and showed us the boundaries for where to cast in our swims so people are not casting into each others swims.  This is the swim I fished from, there wasn't any weed there.   Quote
bigroy Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 aye aye cheers for photos,yer had quick look on site was hopeing to see couple photos of lake and swims but hey ho i know its gonna be bit tight theres 4 of us going in september for 5 nights just hope all goes well also hopeing to get trip into celtic lakes in march for long weekend thanks for info Quote
bluebirdjones Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 If you're going there for 5 nights you'll be pleased to know the toilets are very clean and they also have a shower. Â There is a lot of birdlife there as well and a couple of very cheeky swans. They wiped my lines out within 5 minutes of me casting my 3rd rod Quote
bigroy Posted February 4, 2009 Author Report Posted February 4, 2009 you ever fished celtic are cats awake in march if so what ya think of place Quote
bluebirdjones Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 you ever fished celtic are cats awake in march if so what ya think of place  Haven't been yet, but will do one day its takes just as long for me to get there as it would the Gloucestershire area.  Can't help with the cats sorry, I haven't tried fishing for them yet.

bluebirdjones Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 I had a quick look on the search and found this: Â Time of year and location. Usaully warm months (april -sept) but the best month i think is november because cats slow down in winter and bury themselves in silt. November is a big feed up period before the winter. Â If you type catfish into the search facility, click on search all terms and pick the UK Predator and Abroad forum there are 2 pages of catfish threads. Hope this helps Quote
bigroy Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Posted February 5, 2009 tidy job thanks i've found that on some lakes that they seem to still feed at time to time during the winter months that just could be down to the milder weather in previous years but the way this years been (bloody cold) only one way to find out cheers for that i'll have look Quote
pbccarper Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 The entire wildmoor site is 4.5acres the lake itself is more like 3 acres. They say maximum 8 anglers but wehn I look over the fence there are many times that the owner has crammed more on and lots of unhappy customers Quote
bigroy Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Posted February 7, 2009 aye aye all booked now hopefully all will be ok theres a group off us going so we'll have majority of lake i wont be made a mug of anyway Quote
