Town Parks Fishery Catch Report w/e 23/6

The changeable weather conditions produced testing fishing conditions at Town Parks Fishery this week. The fish fed sporadically with some anglers banking personal bests whilst others sat watching them!!

On the Specimen Lake, Catfish came to the net.

Karl Newcombe visited the Fishery for the first time in years and netted his first Catfish, a good specimen of 24lbs 2oz. Newcombe also banked a Carp of 16lbs 11oz which also fell to a Cell boilie offered midwater form peg 8.

Local rod Trevor Trebell chose peg 3 and fished his single Cell boilie towards the central bar.

Trebell hooked into a good cat of 20lbs 1oz which he netted during the afternoon!

Paignton rod Trevor Trebell fished his Cell boilie from peg 3 at Town Parks Fishery and hooked into this fine Catfish which tipped the scales at 20lbs 1oz.

Scott Richards fished for Eels from peg 14 and netted one and lost another! Richards also netted two Carp of 18lbs 9oz and 16lbs 11oz.

Plymouth rod Tom Purdy moved to peg 2 after a fruitless session in peg 2 and almost immediately hooked into a 16lbs 5oz Carp!

Plymouth rod Tom Purdy fished form peg 2 at Town Parks Fishery and almost immediately his alarms sounded and he played this stunning Common Carp to the net. The fish took Purdys Cell boilie and weighed 16lbs 5oz!

On the Match Lake, sport was slow at times with the Carp still showing signs of spawning at times. With the temperature constantly changing the fish don’t seem to be able to complete the process.

Carp did come to the bank with several anglers fishing “overnighters”.

Nick Saint fished from peg 10 and took six Carp which fell to homemade boilies!

Brixham rod Dave Gorman did have a cracking evening session banking 16 Carp all of which fell to his homemade boilies.

Roddy Metcalf netted several fish during short visits to various pegs.

With more settled weather forecast the fishing should improve with the fish returning to the normal feeding pattern.
