REPORT
MOLANDS Although the weights were not huge, the matches held this week saw nearly every competition weigh in giving very fair sport from all around the pool even after breaking the ice at the weekend. Roach and F1’s providing the bulk of catches but the odd tench, carp and chub were proving to be bonus fish. Pole with caster, pinkies, red maggot or small expanders has been the best approach.

GEARYS Only a few anglers fished Gearys but were rewarded with decent nets to double figures of roach and skimmers on float fished pinkie or caster over ground bait. The high bank area has been the best with pegs 7 – 13 providing the best sport.

LITTLE GEARYS After breaking ice on Sunday everybody caught on the Winter League with F1’s the main target. Long pole with pellet is the best approach and pegs along the straights from 7 – 15 and 24 – 28 are the top areas.

GRATUITIES Gratuities was fishing well early in the week with mixed nets of roach, crucians, carp and a few tench. Pole fished 4mm expander pellets fed very sparingly has been the best approach but straight lead or waggler with bread punch is also working.

WILLOW The hot pegs have been 5 and 6 around the reed beds where carp to 31lb and F1’s have been providing good sport to pellet or caster fished tight up to the reeds. Roach and skimmers being caught around the other parts of the pool with pinkies or caster the best baits.
