Carp Lake

Still best to use light tackle. Double red maggots and smelly meat are the best baits. Paul Faiers had an excellent day on peg 21 fishing across the island, next to the aerator. He had just over 50lbs including an 11lbs mirror. Paul followed this up by taking 30lbs from peg 12 to win a Kev Perry series practice match.

Match Lake

Match-winning weights to 25lbs, pleasure bags to 35lbs. Single maggot and bread punch are catching a good quantity of silver fish and crucians. Cat meat and sweetcorn tempt the bigger carp.

North Pool

25lbs won Ray Cooper’s Fry’s open from peg 15. Dave England, the Veals matchman, has been getting some excellent pleasure bags from all over this in-form lake. Same tactics as the match lake work best.

South Pool

Gary Bedford had a 32lbs bag from peg 4 comprising small carp and silver fish. Gary pole-fished light out into open water. All pegs on this lake are fishing well.

Rushcombe Lake

Still fishing really well. Maggots and pinkies on a 20 hook with 1.5lbs bottom line are again producing literally a fish a chuck – not bad for January. The bigger carp in here are falling to sweetcorn and any smelly meat. Fishing light is the name of the game in this lake.
