ive got a match on phase 1 lake 2 on friday and was wondering if anyone could tell use the best methods and bait at the moment please.

pellet feeder with hair rigged pellet i am told

[TF_Snooty Fox]

I believe Andy Findlay won the open on Sunday off A15.
A20 also produced a ton as did 2 other pegs (I think). It’s either pellet feeder or method feeder all the way – not groundbait on your method but dampened 3mm’s with an 8mm banded on the hook.
Avoid the bowl (B4 to B10 ish) cos its crap.
If Woody 999 sees this he may well enlighten you some more.

Snooty has got it spot on with what he says about the method feeder,chuck it tight to the bank on the islands..the only other thing you will catch on is the pellet waggler but only if conditions are perfect for it but i dont think it will outscore the feeder though.

[r.oyboy]

thanks alot. why is the bowl pegs crap

[Anonymous]

Dont know the answer to that one royboy,none of the regulars know either,its just one of those things..its only ever been good in the depth of winter,fishing the straight lead and feeding nothing,that is when a lot of fish seem to migrate there for some reason probably cos of the overall depth in this area which on average is deeper than the rest of the lake apart from pegs 21,22,and 23 which are up to 12 feet deep but these pegs seem to produce all year round.

Woody thanxs for info on the b section as i have 25 pegs booked for next year for 20 anglers fishing(august)….so will remember about the bowl pegs

[TF_lk741]

didnt the record for that lake get broken from peg b10 in the bowl

[Anonymous]

Correct me if i’m wrong,but i believe the current record was from A9..a very good weight did come from B10 but i believe the angler was chucking into peg 11/12 as it was one of the small wednesday opens where every angler has loads of room.

[TF_kev34]

Woody any info for lake 4 at all as im there next week….cheers

[TF_The Ginger magician]

kev lake four is easy mate just draw peg 20 and fish to the corner

[Anonymous]

Kev,how many anglers will be on your match on lake 4 ?

[TF_kev34]

20-22 anglers

[TF_Snooty Fox]

Ah Oh – 20 on Lake 4 = lots of low weights. Sorry.

[TF_kev34]

Are they still avin the pellet wag on lake 4??

[TF_jammy1976]

pellet wag not as prominate as it has been on there mate, As with most of phase 1 pellet method works chucking short of rope its what John Adamson always fishes on there. Dumping corn in on shortish pole line should now be starting to work.Let us know how you get on mate as winter league starts soon.

[sjroe]

anyone know whats working better on phase 1 lake 2 at the mo methed or pellet feeder?

[Anonymous]

f.a.o…sjroe..its method feeder with either green swimstim micro pellets or 3mm pellets wrapped round the feeder instead of g/bait.

[Anonymous]

Kev,as snooty says,with that many of you on lake 4 a lot of you will struggle and end pegs will dominate..ideally you want no more than 15 anglers on lake 4 for it to fish ok.
hyperthetically,if you were to have only 15 of you i would peg it as follows :

3,4,6,7,9,10,12,13 (thats the bank with your back to lake 2)

17,18,20,21,23,25,29 (far bank,29 is on the end of the island with your back to lake 5).

however,if you have to put more pegs in dont,i repeat dont put any in round the back of the island..26 will be ok but thats as far as you want to go.

snooty.. woody999

do you know how phase 3 is fishing

[TF_Snooty Fox]

le,mo – yesterdays open rsults
1. 55lb Avon
2. 51lb Avon
3. 48lb Thames

There were about 4 or 5 other 40’s and the best weight of Derwent was 32lb.

[Anonymous]

le,mo..fished the open match on phase 3 yesterday,had an early bath cos i was on a no hoper..not sure what won but it was fishing really hard at the time i packed up and went home..i did hear that 2 or 3 people were catching a few though.

[Anonymous]

How did you get on Snooty off that flyer !!!

[lemo]

where did you draw woody ….where was snooty

[TF_Snooty Fox]

Woody – granted i was on a good peg (Thames 1), however imagine how i felt when somebody came and sat on pegs 2 and 20 – aaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhh.

Totally pi$$ed me off as they effectively formed a barrier to prevent any fish moving into the peg.
I did as best I caught an caught all 6 carp that were resident pmsl.

le,mo – when woody got to the drawbag (last) there were no pegs left – I believe they put a peg in from each lake and he had to draw one of them.

[lemo]

i was there sun my first time there ..drawed peg 6 avon had 9 carp 1 barbel and lost 12 foul hookers come bck with just scales ……

[TF_sillybait blue]

Snooty, best weight on Derwent was 42lbs, not 32.
le,mo, you must have been near to me, I was peg 4 on Avon. And I caught plenty of scales too!

[TF_Snooty Fox]

Sorry, it was 42 – Leesy I think.

Avon 4 ! – another flier then Mark lol

[Anonymous]

Yeah,what snooty says is correct..i was last in the queue for the draw,when i dipped in there were no pegs left..the organiser had cocked up yet again (he did on the last match i fished there 2 weeks ago).
i was given the choice of drawing from 3 pegs,all of which were crap and all with anglers either side so no room at all,wasn’t even gonna bother and was gonna go home there and then but decided to give it a go..gave it 3 hours and fecked off home.
If the crappy organisation continues on my next match there this sunday i’m just gonna have to lose my rag and have me two penneth worth with the organiser cos it just aint cricket is it.

[r.oyboy]

thanks for the advice woody i won the match on peg b26 with 80lb down the margins with past in the last couple of hours

[r.oyboy]

paste sorry

[Anonymous]

Well done r.oyboy,i take it that it didn’t fish very well to the feeder then if you won it on the pole..do you mean b25 by any chance as there isnt a b26 ?

[lemo]

silly bait

was you second in match was it you who had 52lb …the wind was to bad couldnt present bait properly done me head in

[TF_sillybait blue]

Snooty – how dare you? Have you ever sat on a bad peg?
le,mo yes it was me second, but with 50lb 8oz.

[TF_Snooty Fox]

Sillybait – got no choice but to sit on bad peg when you and Woody999 are in the same maatch – 2 fliers gone for a start lol

[r.oyboy]

sorry ye it was b25 under the tree at about 12 meter. lost loads of foul hookers as well. would only take sloppy paste.

[TF_kev34]

Drew permanent peg 11 on lake 4 and weighed 40lb for 2nd….peg 9 won with 45lb.

Managed to have a couple on the pellet wag last hour when the sun came out but had majority of fish at 8m on corn(fed 3 tins)..

Lost 4 fish all day and the last one which i lost at the net on the pole was easy a big double…..lad next to me had one 16lb on the pellet waggler..

You where right about it being peggy as there where a couple of blanks and saturdays match with 20 anglers fished the same with 49lb winning and lots of blanks..

One thing you forgot to tell us and thats how big they got to in there lol…….
