Pleasure Fishing
The good days pleasure fishing are very much revolved around the milder weather temperatures so it is advisable to take
note of this before you pick your day to fish. The warmer days are producing match weights up to 80lbs and these comprise
of carp and bream. Feeder fishing has been producing the most consistent results but fish can be caught still on the pole
when conditions allow.
Moat Pool : The new carp are still showing in amongst the original fish and the best reports are up to 15 carp plus a
few bream in a day, with bigger carp to 15lbs showing in areas to bomb and meat or corn tactics.
Croft Pool : The sheltered or reeded areas are still the most consistent with carp to 6lb on pole and pellet or corn at
6 and 12m, or feeder with maggot to the reeds. Croft is due to have a stocking of bream in the next few weeks, so we expect
these to provide good sport for the pleasure men.
Bridge Pool : Some nice nets of Carp and Skimmers are showing in the milder weather conditions, pellet feeder to the middle
is as good a tactic as any at the moment. Also, pellet on the pole is best for the bigger bream, but maggot or caster will
get plenty of bites, especially on the island pegs.
Reed Pool : Bream and other silver fish still coming to pellet or maggot at 8 and 11m. Carp showing to legered baits
of meat or corn mainly to the middle of the lake.

Pleasure Fishing
Sport has started to pick up again after spawning.
Croft Pool is producing nets of fish up to 70lb for both match and pleasure anglers on pole with pellet or meat.
Bridge Pool has improved with the bream feeding well. Nets to 40lb of all silvers with the occasional carp are regularly
coming out with meat, pellet, caster and maggot the popular baits.
The carp are still a bit lethargic on Moat Pool but the current settled spell of weather will encourage them to feed properly
with pellet, meat and corn fished at 8 and 10m the best approach.
Reed Pool continues to fish well and pleasure anglers are taking carp to double figures on larger baits, luncheon meat,
double corn or catmeat.

to a variety of methods from pole to rod and line.
Moat Pool has seen the top weight of the year so far with 184-14-0 of mainly carp caught on paste from the bowl area in
an afternoon open match. Pleasure anglers have been recorded bags of 80lb plus. Corn and catmeat down the margins are starting
to produce results, with carp to 19lbs.
Bridge Pool continues to fish well with pellet, meat, corn and paste the favoured baits fishing mainly at 6m and 12m.
Reed Pool continues to fish well for the bigger carp, bream and the odd chub and tench on corn and cubed meat, the top
match weight this week is 157lbs, using paste and corn.
Croft is still providing good sport with smaller carp around the 1lb mark and the odd fish to 5lb plus on pole and pellet
at full depth.
