Town Parks Fishing Catch Report w/e 21/08


Good catches were reported from both lakes at Town Parks Fishery this week.
The Specimen Lake provided great sport from the deeper water pegs, especially on the northern bank.

John Symonds fished an overnighter on peg 10 and banked six Carp, the best a Common of 22lbs 10oz. All Symonds fish fell to Cell boilies offered towards the main island.

Catfish continued to feed with several anglers reporting their first “tussle” with the species!

Shallower water pegs proved slightly more testing with the fish sun bathing rather than feeding. Some Carp fell for floaters during the warmer afternoons one, a very nice Ghostie of 21lbs 4oz!


The top Match Lake continued to produce very good bags of Carp and Silvers.

Carp came to the bank in numbers from the island pegs and also along the dam wall.
Robbie Metcalf made some short visits to various pegs taking 15 to 20 fish per visit on the pellet waggler!

Visitor Brian Goode fished a day session from 14 and took 17 Carp to double figures and a mixed bag of Bream, Rudd and Roach which took sweetcorn offered in the margin.

The Fishery’s tutored sessions have proved very popular throughout the summer holidays with most sessions fully booked. A party from Paignton Community College had fantastic sport with all students catching plenty of Silvers whilst one lucky angler banked a 4lb 8oz Carp!
