FISHING REPORT

MOLANDS The continued milder conditions have further improved sport with nice catches being caught from all around the pool. In the matches, nets to 165lb were best and bomb with pellet or bread, waggler with 8mm pellet method feeder with small wafters and long pole with hard pellet catching carp and F1s. Carp anglers had fish to 22lb this week with boilies or large wafter fished right upto the island working best.

GEARYS In the week nets to around 60lb+ were caught with Method feeder with wafter or small discs of punched bread, bomb with 8mm pellet and banded hard pellet on the pole all worked well and with the milder weather carp were also being caught down the margins on corn or dead maggots. Silver fishing has been great with nets to over 44lb and maggots or pinkies fished over ground bait has worked best.

LITTLE GEARYS Good sport to be had this week with catches to over 115lb being and good back up weights from around the pool. Pole fished banded pellet, corn or maggot fished out to 14.5 metres or down the margins was the top tactic but maggot feeder and method feeder also worked well.

ANNIVERSARIES Nets to around 60lb were best this week, mainly F1s but a few ‘stockie’ carp were also being caught. Bomb or waggler in the open water on pegs 6, 10 and 17 – 23 fishing banded 6mm pellet on the hook accounted for the better nets but pole fished maggots or corn also worked well.

SIBLINGS A Nets to over 60lb this week with carp to 10lb and F1s to 5lb featuring. Dobbing bread or corn along the island and fishing maggots down the middle were the best tactics.

SIBLINGS B The water has started to colour up a bit with the fish starting to have a feed and nets to 157lb were caught this week. Maggots or pellet fished down the middle of the pool or expander pellet fished over micros have been the best tactics but the odd bigger fish coming to bread dobbed across to the far back.

GRATUITIES Carp have been showing better with fish to 15lb featuring in catches and corn or dead maggot fished down the margins has worked well and a small feeder to the island also producing. Nice bags of silvers still coming out with skimmers, roach , perch and chub responding to maggot or caster over groudbait.

WILLOW Top pegs have been 1- 5 and pole fished pellet fished down the middle has worked best for carp and F1s to 5lb in nets to around 60lb. The odd bigger carp are coming to 8mm pellet fished up to the island on the bomb or waggler.
