Town Parks Fishery Catch Report w/e 10/3

Changing weather conditions produced testing fishing conditions at Town Parks Fishery this week.

On the top Match Lake catches were reported from the deeper water pegs although the fish went on and off the feed sporadically. Carp came to the net falling to corn, coarse pellet and meat. Several anglers banked Carp from the tall reeds in the margins.

 As usual, Rod Metcalf made several short visits taking up to 10 Carp with pellet from midwater in front of peg 16.

Some good bags of Silvers have also been reported, all in excellent Winter condition!

On the Specimen Lake action was a little slower than of late with anglers frustrated by fish moving around the lake but refusing to take the bait!

Plymouth rod Steve Jarvis did manage to bank two Carp, a Mirror of 19lbs 3oz and a Common 18lbs 9oz from peg 12.  Tutti Frutti boilies offered in the margins tempted the fish!

Brixham rod Steve Davis also took two Carp to 17lbs 4oz from peg 15 with Cell boilies.

Also on the Specimen Lake, Rod Metcalf fished a pole from peg 7 and bagged a cracking net of Roach and Rudd with nothing under 1lb and some good 2lbs plus specimens. The fish fell to a single red maggot.

Town Parks Fishery regular Rod Metcalf chose peg 7 on the Specimen Lake for a change and was rewarded with a fine bag of Silvers all over 1lbs with some very large specimens included. The fish fell to a single red maggot offered at around 8 mts.
