All waters are fishing better than ever at the moment with warm weather encouraging the fish. The Main Loch continues to improve and more people who habitually fished the Carp ponds are trying the Main Loch for the first time, enjoying the change and variety of fishing. The Island and Top ponds are still fishing […]

 The fine weather has really boosted the fishing, particularly on the Island Pond where lots of 20lb, 30lb and even 50lb catches of carp are being taken. Even when temperatures cool down (it is Spring after all) the carp are still obliging and the F1 carp are feeding strongly backed by lots of fish of […]

Spring is officially springing so things are definitely looking up now! Some nice catches for pleasure anglers on all 3 waters are as a result of water temperatures creeping up a few degrees. We will still get the odd cold snap over the the next few weeks so you still need to take the conditions […]

An innovative new wave making machine has now installed on the top pond that is keeping the pond free from ice throughout the freezing nights. Some fishing can now be virtually guaranteed when waters all around are frozen solid! The slight flow created encourages the fish to feed even when frezing and of course it […]

Unfortunately there were no fireworks to report in November – in fact it was something of a damp squid (pardon the pun).  Despite the best efforts of all the visiting anglers, nobody deigned to enter a qualifying fish – and this at a time when prime specimens and LOADSA PRIZES were there for the taking.  […]

Last week we saw a bombardment of joker balled in in a 5 minute prebaiting period by 31 of the best anglers, inc. Downes, Cox, Teale, and Ashby.It is the first time this has been done on this lake and frankly it didn’t work! This lake is only 3 to 4 foot deep on the […]

Brian at Mal Storey’s tackle shop in Kidderminster (tel: 01562 745221) sends us to the BAA stretch at Stourport this month for a touch of roach fishing on the float. With fish averaging 12oz and plenty well over the pound mark, they are certainly worth a go, and although bronze or tumeric covered maggots are […]

Regarding the Plym Estuary, from West Saltram Beach and all the marks heading north up the estuary (except the road side) you are not permitted to fish this area as this is National Trust Land and although there are no signs saying no fishing there is a very good chance you will be told to […]

TF User CommentCan’t speak for kingsferry bridge itself, but the rest of the Medway isfishing well for flounder on smaller tides. Worms tipped with squid, butfish tips seem to produce larger specimens. I have been catching inridiculously shallow water !!Larger tides are throwing up schoolies, whiting, pout and dab. Again, wormbaits picking up most fish, […]

Waggler and stick float, coupled with a bait apron full of bronze maggots (or white ones coated in tumeric – ed!) will do the job, and if you venture onto any of the pegs between 71 to 80, chub and roach will nail them and make your day. The BAA water at Arley is another […]

Risby Whizzo’s first winter open match took place on the Folly lake on Saturday, 1st November.  With sponsorship at each event by BobCo in Leeds and two golden pegs up to £300 each already in place there was sure to be a keen attendance.  The day was won by Tony Crawford weighing in 33lb 8oz […]

Arley, Ribbesford and Stourport are the places to cast in. Find the deeper water, anything from 4ft to 5ft, look for the best flow just off the crease, and you will find some clonking roach at this time of the year. Feed a constant trickle of bronze maggots or whites just a few rod lengths […]

The 2004 Whizzo Youth Classic will be held at Risby on Saturday July 21st. There will also be a parent’s match on the 30th July, followed by a BBQ.

Folly has fished especially well over the weekend with several 60lb plus bags taken. The method at the moment is to fish up in the water, with red maggot on the hook, constantly feeding 4mm sinking pellets. Don’t feed too many – five at a time is enough -the fish come to the noise. Pole […]
