General

Some very good catches out this week from 100lb skimmers in 4 ½ hours at 12 meters on red maggot, carp tight to far banks on hair rigged pellet and in feeder use angel pellet mixed with groundbait, silvers and big bream including tench coming out closer in at 7 meters.

Water temperature is coming up then getting hit by frosts and bringing it down, but spring is on its way and fish are feeding up as spawning is not that far away. Water is colouring up very well
