TOWN PARKS FISHERY CATCH REPORT W/E 27/1



Fish continued to feed at Town Parks Fishery as the weather turned warmer this week.

The lower Specimen Lake saw anglers enjoying sport from several pegs as the fish moved around the Lake looking for food. Peg 1 saw plenty of action with Carp nuzzling the margins under the overhanging Willow tree.

Conor Nettleton enjoyed a hectic session banking 5 Carp placing his Cell boilies where the fish were feeding. All the fish were double figures, the best 17lbs 8oz!

The previous day Tristian Smith banked a superb Mirror of 25lbs 4oz fishing the same area although two artificial pieces of pop up corn tempted the fish on that occasion!

A little further down the Southern bank on peg 14, Kingsbridge rod Richard Clarkson fished white chocolate boilies close to the margins. During the night Clarkson hooked three “good size” Carp but unfortunately, to his dismay, all the fish snagged around the old outflow tube and pulled free!

Brixham regular Andy Handshaw fished from peg 2 using his newly acquired Nash retractable 9 ft Carp rods. Handshaw hooked two Carp during the night and, although neither reached the net, his rods got a good test!

On the top Match Lake Silvers and Carp were feeding although more sporadically then of late.

Regular Rod Metcalf continued to find the fish taking Carp or Roach on most of his visits. Corn offered mid depth proved effective.

Silvers were particularly “peggie” although some anglers reported small bags of decent sized fish falling to maggot or pellet.

With warmer weather now settled in the fish should continue to search for Winter pickings!
