The top Match Lake at Town Parks Fishery continued to produce some great bags of Carp and Silvers. Although the peg choice was important most pegs fished well.
The sheltered pegs, 1 to 6, saw medium bags of silvers with a few decent Carp taken. The dam wall pegs tended to fish better later in the day, some anglers taking few Carp during the day but 10 to 20 fish in a couple of hours as the sun dropped!
Visitor Martin Weedon banked a fine Roach which fell to red maggot from peg 5 and tipped the scales at 2lbs 9oz! Weedon estimated a 50lbs bag of Silvers.
Mike Tooley fished an overnighter and banked 41 Carp to 9lbs 8oz from peg 10. Fishing coarse pellet on the waggler Tooley had to wind in one rod as he kept getting double catches!
The lower Specimen Lake proved very difficult this week with anglers frustrated with “liners” but the fish staying off the feed!
During the recent holidays the lake has been full most of the time with large amounts of bait used. Having checked the last three years catch reports the catches on this week always dropped dramatically from the previous weeks. It is almost certainly due to over feeding which, if the previous years are anything to go by, will return to normal over the next week or so!
Some anglers did connect with fish, Ashley Kelly taking three Mirrors from peg 6 on maggot. Wolverhampton rod Brain Gibson visited peg 14 and took two nice Mirrors of 21lbs 3oz and 15lbs 6oz. Both fish were taken tight in the margin and fell to pineapple boilies. Guy Weston from Redruth took a nice Catfish which tipped the scales at 19lbs 4oz. Weston fished halibut pellet tipped with artificial sweet corn from peg 12.
With Autumn on its way the Catfish will soon be feeding up ready for their hibernation from the end of November.
Some top weight fish will be coming to the bank over the coming weeks!
The onsite shop is open daily from 7.00 a. m.
