NEWKID 26,204 Posted January 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Talked to Dave at the fishery today... Anyone wanting static caravans need to order ASAP as they are taking orders quickly... I've said Ken will want the normal van he has... Hes setting aside the top 3 pounds for us so we will have plenty of room for fishing, I think that's around 35 swims, we'll peg it so there is space on each pond...I doubt more than 25 will fish... 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
walshie 2,804 Posted July 22, 2020 Report Share Posted July 22, 2020 Using the correct thread (this one) is it all still going ahead? Do we get to pick which lakes we fish or is it done by drawing numbers? I need to read up on what's in each lake so can fine tune my tactics accordingly. (Size 14 hook or size 16) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forwards to it now.... I've been in contact to book my bed chair again they've had a baby boy 5 weeks back also and are very much looking forward to us all coming again Cheers, D. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NEWKID 26,204 Posted August 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Yeah all on lads, It will be a draw for swims so down to luck where you fish. We can have a sort out on what ponds we fish once we are there and no definite numbers.. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, to clarify, someone could come to the comp with a 3m whip and 1 1/2lb line and draw the carp lake, and someone else could turn up with size 4 hooks and 12lb line and draw the silver fish lake.

Yep... But I'm sure we'll sort anyone out with the right tackle...or even rig the draw if someone gets real emotional about it... Just to clarify, the silver fish lake is full of big bream.and lots of tench... no need to fish light, i think i had around 45lb out of it last year never put a maggot on the hook... it ain't a tiddler snatching pool...

Greyman 25,266 Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 I,m not saying anything this year life’s in a bit of turmoil, but will just turn up if and when I can, even if only for a night 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There’s normally only four or five guys that want to fish the carp lake so just do two separate draws one for the carp lake and one for the silver fish lake which means everybody fishes the lake they want.

Simples ...... I'm easy mate... the carp lake only has small carp in the main in it, its not specimen fishing by any stretch... you could fish the same tactics on any of the ponds with similar results... It's supposed to be match fishing....these bloody carp boys ruin everything!! Lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone thinks the "silver" fish lake is full of bits, but you can fish for bream and tench on heavier gear! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
