A better week of catches at Town Parks Fishery saw most anglers connecting with fish.
The top Match Lake continued to provide the faster sport with good bags of both Carp and Silvers reported.
Early morning and evening sessions saw the better fishing along the dam wall with Carp coming on the feed along the bar between the islands. Coarse pellet on the waggler proved effective as did feeders cast close to the islands.
Visitor Vic Sadler took 8 Carp to the 8lb mark on pellet from peg 16 he also lost 3 at the net!
The lower Specimen Lake continued to provide good sport with the fish moving around most pegs.
Regular Kevin Locke banked three Carp to 16lbs 2oz and lost another three from peg 12.
Plymouth rod Simon Goddard found the fish hesitant to feed in front of peg 3 with continual “liners” and runs which did not connect. Eventually Goddard connected with a fish and banked a fine looking 16lbs 1oz Mirror which had fallen for luncheon meat.
Liskeard angler Guy Mitchell took two nice Catfish of 21lbs 4oz and 19lbs 8oz on halibut pellet tipped with corn from peg 8. Mitchell also banked two Carp, both Mirrors, of 20lbs 4oz and 17lbs 5oz which took red sauce boilies.
Regular visitor Chris Wilson set up on peg 14 with two friends on the pegs either side. While Wilson kept an eye on one of the pegs whilst the angler answered the call of nature one of the rods screamed off and he banked a fine 20lbs 2oz Mirror much to the surprise of the returning angler! During the evening Wilson also banked another Mirror of 20lbs 4oz but on his own gear! A red hot chilli boilie proved irresistible.
The penultimate match in the Torbay Angling sponsored Carp League saw Julian Hatton run out winner with four Carp from peg 10 – All to fish for in the final match!
The £200 Fishery cash prize for the next Carp over 30lbs, banked, weighed and witnessed has still to be collected by a lucky angler!
None of the 30lbs+ known to be in the lake have showed themselves recently but they should be on top weight at the moment.
