Me and my mate went down on the 17 th of feb 2009 and blanked, pool was good and we were very confident can any one give me any tips on what bait and tac tics i can use cheers jonty

Fish the margins, be quiet and its easy. They love a bit of hemp so fish over that with any decent bait.

Heres a couple from there

jemsue i fished with petfyjo92 tht day we felt quite confident and there was a guy fishing there for the week who sed he had the lake record at just under 30lb i think its the same fish as your mate had 'carpaddict13' even he didnt catch that day and there wasnt alot moving. but he did give loads of help and advice jem Do you fish the blue much still

I dont fish it very often any more, as for the lake record i've had a mirror out of there the slate grey at over 30lb and so has carpaddict so whoever you were talking to hasn't had that one. The fish carpaddict has in that pic of the two of us is about 18lb, the big common i've got is about 25/26 from memory. There are two big commons the other one is called the the long common i had it at 29lb odd there are a few new 20s coming through since i last did any serious time on there so i might give it a bash in the spring.

advice is avoid in the summer though alot of kids jumping in but there are some monsters in there some great area's for stalking to

 

dont leave car on car park though

Thanks ye the guy who was there when i was there caught it quite recently the 29lb i think and his brother was there too and he had caught a 26 which was his best from there . But you never know what people say these days to be honest lol. Ye im going to fish it alot more as my session before was my first time down there. If you do go down pm me how you get on .

 

Do u know richard who owns the stall in wellington market?

 

thanks alot

thats the thing with the pool ive seen pictures of it when it was a quary and its v v deep ive seen some definate upper 20's swimming round the top end near the feeding table

 

its a nice pool i just not mad on location i like quiet pools

There are some cracking fish in the water but also some horredous snags, depths very from 1ft down to 28ft and i've caught all over the pool. The summers can be a nightmare with the kids and idiots so i used to concentrate on the winter/spring. Dont listen to what some of the regulars tell you a lot of the time they are trying to put you off, the most common one is that it does't fish in the winter which from my photo you can see is rubbish. If you can get it quiet the fish are always in the margins, i've had big 20s from there within 3ft of the bank in places.
