        any info, taking a trip there soon, haven’t been 4 years, is it still pretty much all bream and large carp? used to use corn mags etc, is it now pellet or meat? so many questions so little time 😉

            PVA Bags 8-10mm micro boilies.Small cubes of meat.12 inch hook length-60yd chuck!
            Pole line good for Roach.3-4 anglers will hook big carp.3-4 will find the bream.

                    Decaff has it pretty much spot on from what i have heard. Im going thursday for the first time since the matches have started again. My dad went last week and said PVA totally dominated. Either micros or 4mms in the stocking mesh bags and a 8mm white boilie on the hook. Couldnt be much simpler really!

                            even one eye could have won off the peg Cruci had!!!

                              lol. i think that may be strecthing it a bit far, he couldn’t catch a cold orexina.
                              i take it cruci was on peg 4

                                No he was on 12 I think where the out flow pipe is. Jeff Pearson was on peg 4 and only had 40lb. Cruci had over 100lb. Bill Renolds was on 10 and had 90+

                                  40lb from peg 4 sounds a tad low, they nest there, lol. bill would catch in a puddle so no surpise. do you know if its beggars hall sunday?

                                              He doesn’t seemed to be too bothered about it. I miss a lot of the matches as I have to go back to Swindon some weekends and I also draw crap pegs so I don’t worry about the points. I didn’t know he was that far up though he has been catching well lately.
