With the
continued settled weather conditions the fish stayed on the feed at Town Parks
Fishery this week.
The Specimen
Lake produced great sport with Catfish and Carp freely taking the anglers
baits.
Steve Wright
fished a session from peg 1 choosing Halibut flavour luncheon meat which he
offered mid water. Within minutes of casting out Wright’s reel screamed off and
he struck into a good sized fish! Eventually the Catfish was brought to the net
and banked. The fish was Wright’s personal best hitting the scales at 30lbs
3oz!

Fishery. The 30lbs 3oz fish fell to a lump of luncheon meat offered mid water
from peg 1. |
Local rod
Nathan Giddy banked his first, and second Catfish taking fish of 26lbs 2oz and
22lbs 4oz from peg 11!
Fishing
partner Jay Harper had great sport on peg 9 taking 8 Carp to 19lbs 8oz whilst
on peg 10 Joe Dawson had a 19lbs 4oz Cat and a couple of high teens Carp.
Many Carp,
too many to list individually, came to the bank with most pegs producing fish.
The current
water temperature is 16.8 degrees and shows no sign of dropping due to the warm
weather – The Catfish will continue to feed up ready for the Winter lay up!!
On the top
Match Lake sport was also good.
Bags of up to
the 100lbs mark of Carp were reported by several anglers as the fish took
coarse pellet and dead maggot offered up in the water.
Some large
Carp have been taken and the Fishery would like to remind anglers that any fish
over the 10lbs mark should be reported to the Bailiff so the fish can be moved
to the Specimen Lake to grow on.
Silvers fed
throughout taking small cubes of meat, maggot and castor. A couple of Tench
were also reported, one taking a boilie offered for Carp!
