Town Parks Fishery Catch Report w/e 31/8

The fish continued to feed heavily at Town Parks Fishery this week. The Specimen Lake in particular saw angers enjoying frantic sport as the fish took baits freely.

Town Parks Fishery regular Christian Scales fished a session from peg 9 on the Specimen Lake and banked six fish including this fine Mirror Carp taken with a Cell boilie.

Matt Feakes fished from peg 11 and was soon into the fish. Feakes netted 4 fish including a Cat of 25lbs 3oz which was one of his biggest catches!

Fishing alongside Feakes was friend Shayne Parkes who was targeting Catfish having never caught one! Parkes was not disappointed after he banked no less than 8 Cats to high teens which had seized his Cell boillies!

Visitor Craig Matthews fished a 24hr session from peg 15 and netted 10 catfish and carp overnight losing another 3 at the net! Banoffee boilies tipped with sweetcorn and offered towards the central bar accounted for most of the fish, the best a fine Ghost Carp of 23lbs 6oz!

Local rod Mitchell Steer fished overnight for peg 2 at Town Parks Fishery taking this fine Ghost Carp, one of a brace which fell for a Cell boilie!
