hi Tony,look for the shallowest water across and fish maggot and groundbait! if like myself last week on peg 14 I unfortunatly had 3 feet across and had too many liners (I fished balls of g/bait and dead maggot)
After an hour I only had 2 carp in the net so fished down the track on meat and hemp which produced another 8 carp but I had to wait for bites..
I fed g/bait and maggot down the edge in 3 foot and had 2 barbel and 4 more carp in the last hour..
I weighed 45lb for 4th in the open which was won with about 65lb (the winner had shallow water!)
I had to feed quite heavy in order to get bites (half a big pot every fish) the pegs with the gaps in the islands are difficult to beat and are the flyers.
Hope this helps

Pete

Cheers lpete never seen fished the place,how far across are the gaps in the island can you reach with pole or tip ? :confused:

Merlins is a canal style water with about 50 pegs,roughly 24 on each side and two pegs on each end, there are two gaps/channels, pegs 9 and 10 are on each corner of the first gap then pegs 16 and 17 are on the second gap! I don’t know the peg numbers on the other side? All pegs are 15 or 16m wide!to fish into the channel pegs you will need a tip rod!
