Town Parks Fishery Catch Report w/e 5/1

The Lakes at Town Parks Fishery continued to produce excellent sport for anglers this week.

The Specimen Lake saw some cracking fish come to the net, as often happens during the winter months when the Catfish are asleep.

Once again Conor Nettleton had a good session from peg 14 fishing with a Cell pop up.

Nettleton’s recent run of good fish continued when he connected with a fine Common Carp.

The fish put up a tremendous fight before coming to the net. The scales hit exactly 26lbs, a personal best for Nettleton!

Town Parks Fishery regular Conor Nettleton continued his excellent recent run of fish banking this superb personal best Ghost Carp of 26lbs dead. The fish fell to a Cell pop up.

On pegs 4 and 5 John Austin senior and junior fished a day session. John junior lost a good fish almost immediately but then hit another which tipped the scales at 20lbs 9oz, a fine Common which fell to a red Cell pop up! Meanwhile John senior fished for Bream from peg 5. Shortly after seeing his son bank his fish the alarm sounded and John senior hooked into another good fish. This was a beautifully coloured Common Carp which appeared to have some Koi in it!! Once on the bank and weighed at 19lbs 1oz the fish was returned to the water.

John Austin jnr fished next to his dad on peg 4 at Town Parks Fishery and was rewarded with this beautiful Ghost Carp which tipped the scales at 21lbs 9oz! The fish fell to a red coconut flavoured pop up.

Tyson Norton fished from peg 1 and, despite catching a few Bream banked a lovely condition Mirror which is distinctive as it has a huge single scale on its right flank!

On the top Match Lake sport was also good with Carp showing again.
