FISHING REPORT

MOLANDS Still fished quite hard this week with some heavy frosts early in the week making the fishing difficult but as it got milder over the weekend it fished a little better with carp showing in nets to 40lb. Bomb and bread or waggler and pellet accounted for the better nets but pole with maggot or caster also took mixed nets of f1s and silvers.

GEARYS The carp started to show as the weather turned milder with nets to around 50lb coming from the high bank or across on the far side. Silver fish nets to 25lb+ were best coming to maggot or pinkies over ground bait on the pole or cage feeder.

LITTLE GEARYS Nets to 60lb were best this week with F1s making up the better catches on pole and maggot or maggot feeder. The odd bigger carp were coming to bomb and bread up to the island or corn/maggot down the edges. Best areas have been along the straights on either side with pegs 7 – 15 and 23 – 29 the most consistent.

GRATUITIES Very quiet on ‘Grats’ this week but the few anglers that have fished have had mixed nets of silvers and small F1s. Maggot, caster or pinkies fished over micros on a bit of ground bait has been the best approach.

ANNIVERSARIES Fished ok this week despite the cold conditions with lots of F1s in the 2-5lb bracket and ‘stockie’ carp being caught on all areas and nets to 40lb were caught. Pole fished maggot or banded hard pellet and bomb/wafter with 6mm banded pellet were the best tactics.

SIBLINGS A Little patchy but when you are on the fish good nets were to be had, mainly of F1s to 4lb but a few decent carp still showing. Pole and maggot fished down the middle of the pool has been the best tactic but ‘dobbing’ corn or bread, were also picking up a few fish. The better pegs have been 2 -5 and 17 – 21.

SIBLINGS B A little better this week with nets to around 40lb+ mainly made up of F1s or small ‘stockies’ but there were a few bigger carp to 10lb showing as well. Maggot or banded pellet fished down the track has been the better tactic.

WILLOW Still the most consistent pool with F1s, carp and silvers showing well through the week in nets to 70lb. Banded pellet, maggot or expander pellet on the pole fished down the middle or waggler and feeder to the island have been the best tactics.
