You beat me to it Dave. lol

I’ll be running to Old Lake, don’t think the fish in Top Lake will have settled down by that date ~think

Your probably right there Mark,they will need a bit of time to settle,before the 3 x 6hr matches a week start and they get hammered.

Thats the best idea I have heard for ages!! See you on the 28th oh and dont forget the following Sunday aswell. Marcus you crack me up!!! Well done Dave and Teabag..

lol..How you doing Del,
In all seriousness mate,those fish that were stocked work out at 17 per peg,give it a month there will be 3 matches a week on there.Those fish will give up feeding during the day,too much pressure and feed at night.There used to it coming from new lake,nobody could catch them on there during the day in any number.

Im good thanks Marcus! I hope that wont be the case and it all go’s well.

I still think that Johns lake should not be used untill the following winter, and maybe keep it as a winter fishery. The only way they might compete during those months with the other fisheries in the area.

Any chance of seeing you down there in the future.

I hope it goes well mate,one of my favourite fisheries.
Your right about Johns lake,i said that before when it was stocked,fishing for little fish,swinging them in,scales coming off in the keep nets,5-6 kilos of groundbait going in, was only going to end in tears.
Didnt agree with it and didnt fish any of the matches on there for that reason.
Its angler pressure mate,longer matches,bigger weights.
Hope the boys see sense and it returns to the fishery it once was.

same as that marcus..

Marcus, New rules for the place have been talked about with Terry and they would cover what you have said above and more, if he decides to implement any is another thing.

As I’m quite new at the place, I’m quite intrested to learn what what you were refering to when you posted “Hope the boys see sense and it returns to the fishery it once was”.
What is different now?
Is it run any different
Is it because the fish have grown up large
ect. ect
Not just for Marcus to answer, there are a few of you on here.

Dave, the thread may have gone off topic, but it should keep it bumped up. lol

Hi mate,i mean the boys in the cabin Mark.

What’s up Delbert, can’t you catch on the tidal or are you fed up removing bog roll and condoms from your line?

what happend to the rest of the post Marcus~think

I know about who you meant, I’m wanting to know more about the bit “what the place was”, and what happened. PM me – if you prefer not post it on here.

I edited a couple of words and lost it all,doh.
Only just noticed,ill stick it back on when i get a minute.

Marcus my old codger where you at on Saturday man?????~think ~think ~think

Andy you old fart lol how are you ?? Only had the two visits the first one okay, the second just a chewed maggot. So going to wait untill the weather improves, hopefully before the end of the season.

If not I will be down there in the new season!! P.s no condoms or bog roll. Just alot of lovely female rowers to keep me company..

Now I fancy a bit of fishing from dry land (wet land)!!

Marcus I saw your post earlier! trust me tebag it will be worth the wait. Marcus wants to come down, offer to cook the breakfast for all, sort the lakes out and plough thousands of pounds into a wonderful fishery!! Lets hear it for~clap mp.milo ~clap ~clap

Dont get you’r hopes up in getting the fishery run for you’r benefit lads, cause it wont be.Its a comercial enterprise and needs to make money.Dont foreget Terry has to pay the lease payments before he or the rest of the team get paid or mony can be spent on stock.
Match fishermen arn’t realy worth a toss to nearly every fishery owner i have ever met,so go for the Crack and hope to catch a few.All this talk about the way the fishery should be run doesen’t amount to a hill of beans,the people that matter wont take a blind bit of notice. imho.

Anyone seen a Butterfly yet?

are people still living in the past……? put me down for a lough. dishy you need to broudon you horizons

Terry Im happy where I go now!! Maybe I could broaden my horizons, But I’ve been there done that and I dont want to travel half way around England chasing shadows. Im happy to fish Willinghurst and have the odd pleasure day on the Kennet and the Thames.

Time is what I dont have alot of lately with a new baby and work. I have a perfectly good venue 45 mins away which I know and like!! So Mr molloy if you was looking for a liner!! YOU GOT A OFF THE REST LOL keep bagging mate.

you dont go and no one else goes mate, thats the trouble i dont no of any matches there for a longtime so it will be nice if there is a match soon let me no?

you dont go and no one else goes mate, thats the trouble i dont no of any matches there for a longtime so it will be nice if there is a match soon let me no?

Tel judging by this thread I think there will be a match on the 28th of this month there. Be good to see you there mate. You can buy me breakfast and the beans I dont eat will make good ear plugs, incase I draw next to you LOL

cant wait to teach you how to to tie a rig again its been a while you must have forgotten, if you have any quistions dont hesitate to ask

only asked about some history info and what peoples thoughts were !!!!!
then World War 3 starts.
begining to sound like a few of you fell out at the place ???

Malcome, I’m not trying to find out so I can tell Terry on how he should run the place, he would soon kick my ar5e out if I tried.

Tel, last open match there was christmas, I expect you really knew that anyway, it’s been like that for a few years now, always start again when the carp start to feed, only difference this year is that Dave decided not to run the Masters.

Roll on the 28th, can’t wait to show you old Willi veterans on how to catch the fish there in winter. lol

Looking forward to the 28th !

Oh go on then……Put me in….if only to teach you how to sit patiently and wait for a wrap round.

GREAT NEWS…As the song says..”Cant wait to be with my buddies again”……..YIPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap ~clap.

P.S…Be prepared to get your arse severely kicked Delbert….lol.

looks like i’ve got nothing planned that day..suppose i had better get my name down for my first blank this winter ~clap ~clap

Not going till March the 14th,hope you have a great day.You can give me a ring if you see a Butterfly.

put me down im game roll on 28th, what time is the draw roughly

Dave, i’ll let Terry know were not sure how many are coming, it’s down to him then if he runs out of anything. lol

Steve, Pikey will be calling all the shots on times ect, he should see this tomorrow and let us know.

I’m getting itchy feet,but dont think i can get my arris out of this cosey(warm)chair.

Malcolm, see how the weather goes for the next week and then in the morning decide and just turn up, or even just pop down for a visit during the day.

Butterflies are out, there going round the stomachs of 1 or 2 booked in, lol

TEABAG everyone that used to use willy are outcasts in one way or another as they have not been seen since the floats didnt go under anymore but lets hope its a new dawn and breath of fresh air is what the fishery needs ie bites and rods off the rests cant wait for the slow lingering bite~ lol

Just a quickie….Tony(Plummers/methodman) won it with 66lb odd off peg 16 Pittance.
Mick the bookie gave Stevey G(God)a severe thrashing,but i will let David(Pikey) give you the full result…lol. ~shh ~shh ~shh ~shh

Topflights I chose Horseshoe 3a! Big carp did not show. I was top on that lake with 10ib+ 4 F1 and roach.

I was 5th to choose my peg I wanted 16 pittance but Plummers beat me to that, he was 4th to choose. Well done Tony ~clap ~clap

Lieing again Delbert,dont call me Topflights (numb nuts)see you on the 14Th,or on the Molesey bash (if you get an invite)its very exclusive S/G cant get in.He He

Oh s@@@ I got side tracked I thought that one had gone when it was my turn. I really thought it had and Tony had chose it. Molly’s fault all that shouting lol. Oh well lose some and lose some more… Well done anyway Tony I would of probably blanked..

Apologies Toplights!! Topflights sounds better though!! Sounds like a travel agency lol.

No one dropping out as yet so no vacancies to this prestigious event. Could be there on the 14th though can we have a rover!!!!!! P.s you got more minus points after calling me that LOL LOL…

No rovers for me Dishyfish,cant stand em,been caught one to many times, years ago in Thames rovers,you probably know by who.~shh ~shh ~shh

Bring on the minus points the more you get the more people read what you have to say.in the world of newspapers you know what they say, “there is no such thing as bad publicity”.
