Back Arun

[mooseman]

Any idea how it’s fishing at the moment, have,nt been for about a month or so ? Anyone in the know?

[TF_mp.milo]

Same old pegs as far as i know 21,22,23 and 9 has been producing a few frame weights recently. Maggot has been the bait.Pegs 11,12,13,14,have been rock hard.

[mooseman]

Thanks mate, are there tomorrow? Recon its gonna be rock hard all over tomorrow if the forecast is right. Dead windy there even on normal days.

[TF_mp.milo]

No,i dont get there much these days,but a lot of the lads i fish with go there.If its that windy,ive had a few results flicking a bomb 2ft off the far bank in the deeper water with the maggot or corn.Trying to fish light and get good presentation on the pole is bloody hard work in that wind.lol

[mooseman]

Just made up my bomb rod for tomorrow. So yes thanks that seems the way to go. Last year I did well in the winter just pouring in preditor red liquidised with a little prawn and catching on either single mag or a tiny piece of red prawn on the hook. Placed most times doing that, give it a go but only feed liquid by pole cup, hardly any particle at all. Are you out tomorrow?

[TF_mp.milo]

Yes Im fishing pikeys league at willinghurst for my sins.
Have you tried liquidising corn and mixing it with carp vader predetor plus there,cloud hangs for ages.

[mooseman]

Yeah, it good. Used to fish that neck of the wods alot 5 years ago when i lived in croydon. But moved to the isle of wight then and now fish dryad, long lake , hordle, back arun and orchard mainly. Plus the club matches on the isle, we’ve got some good waters over here and some of the guys are pretty reasonable anglers but me and a few others travel over the mainland and fish the opens most weekends but along the south coast commercials mainly. Where do you go mainly? I used to do Gold and Willow a hell of a lot before i moved, used to fish for leatherhead.

[TF_mp.milo]

I fish all the matches at dryad,pick up on most of them.Long lake is my club water,most of the time now im at gold ,winter league,super 6s,ind silverfish league.I must know you from somewhere.

[mooseman]

was second on the last dryad along the middle fishing the prawn over small amount of soft pellet but feed mainly liquid. I come over from the isle with steve morris most times and rod hendry do you know them?

[TF_mp.milo]

Think i know steve,big lad,didnt fish last dryad,i was picking up on the pellet wag,always wear a red top with Milo Bordon on the back.

[mooseman]

Yeah i think i know you. Yeah steve is rather chunky. I think i was opposite you last time, did you drawn in the high teens?

[TF_mp.milo]

No i fished last but one match,had 126lb off peg 46 for 2nd on that bank and 4th overall.My teamate was on the other side about peg 14.

[TF_mp.milo]

Were you on peg 40 and had most of your fish on the pole in the last couple of hours.

[mooseman]

Oh right, well i wish you well for tomorrow mate. I’m mark weldon by the way, hope to see you around in the next few weeks if your in this neck of the woods. Are you?

[TF_mp.milo]

Might be about after christmas,passies,back arun.Names Marcus Page,say hello mate.

[mooseman]

Ok thats great I’ll keep an eye out for you.Gonna go nowoff to get some shut eye, have to get a ferry early tomorrow morning. Quite a nice way to travel though most our venues done mean more the 45 mins on the road so its not so bad. Anyway good luck I’ll log on tomorrow and see how you got on.

[TF_mp.milo]

And you mate,keep everthing tied down there.

[mooseman]

Well mate how did it go at willingshurst? Came second at back arun, won section from peg 27 had 25lb dead.

[TF_mp.milo]

Well done,i won my lake with a massive 12lb10oz. 4 little carp and a few roach,perch and skimmers.

[mooseman]

We done mate, good results all round then. From the island, out of the three sections we had two section wins and a second place, so we managed to take a few coin back to the sunny island.

[TF_Wightman]

Well done mark , we cancelled , most pegs foot under water , surprised ferry was running.

[mooseman]

cheers mate, see you sunday, merstone any method is’nt it?

[TF_wightangler]

would echo wightmans congrats to you and posse for your excellent results on mainland, respect and well done.

[TF_Wightman]

NO Mark , its Pole Only , I wont be there either , Billy + Chalky will be running it.
I`m off to the Kennet for some river therapy.

[mooseman]

Lovely bit of fishing there, what strench are you fishing. I used to go to aldermaston mill and a calpac runcalled padworth mill. It’s great plenty of chub, barbel and some monster river roach. It was all hemp and caster in those days or rolling a bit of meat. Good luck if it fishes you should love it. (proper fishing)

[mooseman]

Also not 100% sure if me and the lads are at merstone now or if they want to go and do another open on the mainland. What ferry you on. If we are doing the open we will be on the 7.30

[TF_Wightman]

5.o`clock mark , brekkie in Newbury at 7.30
Go and do another open mate , give em their money back.
too many good pole anglers at merstone for you anyway.

[mooseman]

Cheeky git,
No we’ve decided that we are of to BA aftr all, but lets hope its to boost the isle of wights economy and not pay it back to the mainland boys. Won’t be out next week as i’m picking up my son on Sunday for over the Xmas break. But all us useless pole anglers will be there on Steves Xmas open LOL. Good luck on Sunday don’t get pulled in, those river fish might have to much muscle for you.
