REPORT

MOLANDS Although top weights in matches are 50lb+ the pool is fishing well with nets of F1’s, crucians, tench, skimmers and carp coming from all areas giving very fair matches. The pleasure anglers have enjoyed the best success with the carp, as local rod Ken Hammond found fishing dog biscuit or the candle and catching 15 fish from 7 – 15lb from peg 29 at the far end. Lots of tactics are catching fish at the moment with pole fished paste down the near margin or pellet feeder across to the island probably the pick of the methods. Best pegs 2 – 4, 8, 16 – 18, 29 – 33, 44 – 48 and 54 – 60.

GEARYS There were a couple of 70lb+ skimmer bream catches early in the week with other good nets of silvers being caught from most pegs. The bigger bream like to get right into the near margin and paste fished down the edge has been a top method this week and it can also account for some big carp, with fish to 12lb caught in matches on this tactic. Straight lead and 8mm pellet is another top method and this has been the most consistent way of catching carp with plenty of fish in the 4 – 6lb bracket coming out this week. Best pegs are 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 – 21, 27, 31 and 36.

LITTLE GEARYS The top pool again this week with lots of F1’s being caught and they range from 12oz – 5lb and catches in matches have been exceeding 70lb with the pleasure anglers fishing longer sessions and exceeding that. Lots of tactics are working but method feeder with polony, pellet or bread punch is accounting for the bigger F1’s and bigger nets. The beauty of the pool at the moment is that
