gazza271 Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Cracking session. I did do a write up from my trip in July but it got deleted for various reasons, would recommend the place to anyone. I was lucky enough to have Clover out at 47.06. Water level looks well down. fantastic pics by the way, so clear. What were they taken on ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coops_northants Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2009 Gazza the pictures were on a cheapy Kodak C875 To be honest it always takes good pictures great value piece of gear. Lewis that picture of some feature finding would be giving the game away.... I didnt know you did that. My rods look like they were set with a spitit level in that pic too. Nige, It was a shame that you were not there mate. If anything could have made the week better it would have been your company. We missed you mate. Anyway if you have any free time early next year then let me know as i want to go back early either april 10th or may 15th. Might even go for my birthday too if i can. I have a couple of mates who fancy it for april/ may time 7 of us makes it £430 for the week and i have room in the van. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coops_northants Posted September 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 You know that Sam. I did have to replace the receiver batteries funnily enough. I had 28 runs (fish on) in total on my rods. 18 of them off the baited spot. Blooming right shoulder is swollen One fish that Lewis played gave him a dead arm.... one i played gave me pins and needles in my hand. Proper scrappers.

iambunn Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Got home last night, after a fantastic week with a great bunch of lads. Unfortunately the weeks fishing was a quiet one wiith regards to numbers of fish coming out, but made up for in the way of new PB's set for all five of our group, including Jamies half linear just short of 47lb, my common making the new lake record at 44.14 and Dans (plowman) mid 30! For the week there were I think around 25 fish out between ten anglers. Our thoughts about them getting ready to spawn were confirmed today after hearing that they started thrashing the water to a foam shortly after we left. There was also an incredible amount of natural food swimming about, so much so that the water visibility was reduced by a few feet! The carp were swimming around in protein soup, therefore eating without knowing it It has helped for some phenomenal weight gains. My ten fish, made up of 6 carp and 4 cats, all came to a snowman set up comprising of a 14mm Infinity baits C&BP boilie, tipped with a fluro pink technipop. The rigs were 8inch combi rigs, size 6 wide gape hooks with a small section of shrink tube, and hairs with a gap of around 1cm from the bend of the hook to the bait, fished blow back style. I was using leads of 1oz fished with running leads and ultra slack lines, and the takes were absolute belters! The majority of my fish, I believe, were curiosity takes thanks to the bright tip, rather than fishing over beds of boilies, as the majority of them were away from my baited patch. Thanks to keith and the girls for another great week, and the boys for plenty more laughs and banter We shall get some photos up shortly.
