Some good catches if you follow watercraft and walk the lakes before choosing your peg, fish starting to shoal because of the water temperature drop to 10 deg,  don’t overfeed but keep a slow constant stream of bait going in as the fish are feeding up for a long winter and need the feed input to sustain them through the cold weather.
 
Carp feeding fantastic dusk and dawn and some excellent overnight catches by season ticket holders of double figered bream and large carp. Dennis   had a great day with 17 carp, crucians, ide, orfe, skimmers all on soft hookers,
 
Hook baits Pellet, Maggot, Worm, casters, working very well, paste and sweetcorn is OK mussel and prawn doing very very well, feed angel pellets, hemp, caster and chopped worm, or maggot for great results.
