Most successful tactics have been as assortment of different types of boilie. Pegs 24/25 29/30, 87/88 and 71/72 have been the most successful. A mix of different boilies have worked really well. The biggest fish of the week was caught by Peter Howard on Sunday morning 19/8/2007. Peter used a fusion boilie and fished peg 24/25. Peter caught a nice 35lb 12oz common. The fish was verified by our bailiffs and several eye witnesses on the bank. Well done Peter. I had a really nice email from Pat Ormesher from Scotland who fished with us during the week. Pat said he and his mate Tony had a brilliant few days with us and caught some superb carp. Pat went on to say what a great venue we have and how great are facilities are. Thanks Pat its always great to hear that our customers have enjoyed themselves. As I said last week I think we are due for a big fish to come out.......watch this space.

Main Lake (Pleasure)
Some really nice bags being reported this week ranging from 20lb to 56lb. Corn, caster and meat have worked really well. The area just in front of the office has fished well this week. Apparently maggot soaked in Star Delight (strawberry flavour) has worked a treat. Apparently it the stuff that is used when making mousse. I have heard it all now. Danny Roberts from Bolton sent me a nice email saying he had a great session with us on Wednesday. Danny fished with us for five hours and caught a nice 36lb bag of silvers using corn and maggot. Bream have shown really well this week.
