Town Parks Fishery Catch Report w/e 27/7

Searing heat and sunny weather conditions produced very testing fishing conditions at Town Parks Fishery this week.

On the Specimen Lake fish sunbathed in the sunshine but seemed reluctant to feed consistently. Anglers had to use their watercraft and change baits to attract takes!

Once again Lee Otridge was in the action banking his personal best Catfish of 24lbs 8oz from peg 11.

Local rod Lee Otridge continued his recent run of fish at Town Parks Fishery taking this fine Catfish from peg 11 on the Specimen Lake. Te fish fell to a Cell boilie offered midwater!

 Wayne Hockley also banked a good Cat of 23lbs 6oz and three Carp to 18lbs 3oz.

Fishing partner Scotty Bryant also had a Catfish of 19lbs 2oz and a brace of Carp to 14lbs 3oz! Homemade special boilies accounting for all his fish!

Rob Boyne fished a day session from peg 14 using floating baits and zig rigs. Boyne did well tempting a Catfish of 20bs 2oz and a fully scaled Carp in the high doubles. A couple of Tench also came to the bank, the best 8lbs 5oz!

Conor Nettleton fished from 6 and netted two Carp to 20lbs 4oz! Cell boilies fished under the overhanging trees did the trick!

On the top Match Lake sport was a little faster with Carp and Silvers taking baits, mainly during the early morning and early evening sessions.

Rod Metcalf fished a few short sessions banking up to 20 fish a time! Pellet offered up in the water and in the margins proved very effective.

Visitor Phil Drury fished a day session from peg 1 and found the Carp feeding heavily in the margins. Drury estimated he banked he banked 120lbs of fish during the day! Luncheon meat and hookable pellet accounted for most of the fish.

With slightly cooler temperatures forecast the fish should go a little deeper in the water and start feeding throughout the daytime.
