Fished a day ticket lake last week for a 4 day session had 4 fish over 20lb within 2 hours of being there topped by a 33
Did go a bit quieter for the remaining 3 days
Lovely times

To be honest I don't know too much about specimen carp as I never fish for them. There are plenty of 3lb or so fish in the Silver Lake along with bream about the same size. I fish sweetcorn on a waggler and always catch a good few.floydroadfaithfull said:

It's never been that busy whenever I've been there, but I've never been there on a Sunday.

Used the top lake today. Few tench and perch but mostly carp to be honest. First time I've used the top lake. Will certainly be doing so again.floydroadfaithfull said:

Gonna have a bash on my mates stock lake next week, 3 acre lake all to meself. We put some massive roach and perch etc over when it was netted in the winter, so looking forward to a good day. Reckon they get big on the pellet they put in for the carp, coz I ain't ever seen anything like it......
I would love to have a few house in the Thames like I did when I was a kid, use to ride along to old path down to the old yacht club, where the Pilot is and pull out lovely eels. Heard Beyonce was down there last week pmsl0 -
Going for a 72 hours session on Orchard place farm tomorrow
After a 401 -
Rob, as apprentices at Deptford Power Station it was our job to make eel traps. We caught loads. The old boys jellied them on site.
Coal gang fucked me off one day so I put an eel in their tea urn ---- they found it next day !!!!3 -

No its only an old fly reel, one of 2, but I've always fancied float fishing with a fly reel. There is another reel in the fishing basket, but I need to have a look at it as its seizedLazy_eye_metaphor said:

If I tried float fishing with a fly reel, I'm sure I would end up with my line in a worse tangle than the neurons in KM's head!i_b_b_o_r_g said:
