hellow anglers,

i am just wondering how the club is doing. Ofcoarse what i mean by this is how is the carp fishing. Is the leazes ever gonna be restocked with a load of coarse and carp fish ever any tim e soon.

does anyone know just how many carp are left in the leazes, what is the average size and when seems to be the best time to go,

also what rigs tend to work best in the summer, baits etc and is it better night fishing now than in the day if the conditions are right,

finally (and u lot r probally glad, haha) does anyone know if u can still buy day tickets anymore or do u have to be a member.

please as much information as possible if everyone doesn't mind,

whooooooooaaaaaa there billy boy, so many questions, chill out man!!!!

deep breath....................

the club is fine, lake is stocked with approx 150 carp and loads of course species, average size of carp between 12-14 pound i think

keep your rigs simple and get a decent bait (boilies), fishing is good at anytime day or night and finally...........

you MUST have a day ticket if you are not a member, available from all tackle shops in and around north east............ phew

soz just i am trying to find out as much information as possible because i am gonna get a bivvie, ect but not going to start putting money into it unless i know that the fishing is good,

what is the situation with these bastard pouchers, i have a fuckin bow and arrow and i bad fuckin temper when it comes to decreasing the fish stock on such a good complex,

and that sounds brilliant as the biggest fish i have caught is a 2 1/2 pound rainbow trout, haha and what specific rigs would you recommend (or anyone for that matter). What rig was used to catch the latest club record and on what bait.

also regarding bait, what specific baits and types of boiles work,

do you know any specific tackle shops that do, does anglers world on the west roaad sell them,

alot of questions from an eager fisherman,

thank you btw for the information, which member are you btw,

cheers

not being funny bud, but , just start fishing! less more

get some mags and read up a bit, like i say nice and simple to start with. Theres plenty out there bait wise, pick something with good feedback etc, dynamite, cc moores, quest, mainline, mistral, solar all good bait companies, and ive seen them all used on the bank with sucsess, mainline pop ups are the shizzle! its all about fishing and learning from experiance mate

ps a bow and arrow would be good but i prefer the old ,hit them on the head with a shovel and then bury them in the woods, technique

yeah i know just i wanna catch fish and not make silly mistakes in the process that could cost me a fish of a lifetime,

yeah i have been buying angling times and lookin up in UK CARP to see what is working,

and yeah i think i may give dynamo a try with fishing a pop up or use an artificial bait, will give them pop ups and i agree with that, experience is everthing,

and yeah the shovel is the way to do it,

btw do you know when the next few carp matches are on and what is happening with the website, it never is updated and no photos are ever added,

are they making a new website or do they not bother

thanks for the info,

like one bleep said billybob, loads of carp in the park mostly between 10lb and 27lb+ probably a few smaller ones off recent spawnings, most people catch them on boilies but anything goes(as long as its safe!!!!) , sweetcorn, bread , luncheon meat, , boilies pellets, maggots it all catches but dont be fooled into thinking they are easy to catch, they have seen it all in the 30+ years they have been in there, so keep it simple. day tickets are also now available at the coffee kiosk in the park, but you must purchase a ticket before you commence fishing.

good luck and tight lines billybob

aye, what the chairman said!!!

right thank you very much for all the replies that u lads have sent and the information you have provided,

i am gonna become a member next year if i can just catch 1 decent sized carp, but i totally agree that the carp are not easy to catch.

and is that coffee kiosk open anymore because i had to stop fishing last time as the kiosk wasn't open. So is it opening again and how much is the tickets for a 16 year old at the kiosk/angling stores,

thanks again for the info,
