REPORT
MOLANDS Started to show some good form over the weekend with match weights to over 160lb and some terrific carp upto 26lb caught.
In the matches the top tactic this week has been the method feeder tight upto the island with wafters or expander pellet on the hook. Waggler /bomb with 8mm pellet and down the margins with dead reds or hard pellet have been working as well. Carp anglers have

had a few 20lb + fish with one angler catching 3 in an evening session on peg 58 fishing down the margins with double corn over hemp and corn.
GEARYS As with Molands sport picked up at the weekend with nets to over 140lb caught and included carp to 22lb. Match anglers found pole with 6/8mm pellet, bomb with 8mms or wafter and method feeder rltp the middle stumps were all productive. The carp were following the wind and pegs 13-19 have been the most consistent this week.
LITTLE GEARYS Still not in the best form but nets to 100lb were caught this week with pegs 7- 21 the most consistent area. A method feeder with wafters or a banded pellet ,long pole with pellet or caster shallow and short or down the edges with corn, meat or banded pellet were the top tactics.

GRATUITIES This small 16 peg pool has been in decent form with carp to high double figures and loads of silvers being caught.

Pole with expander or a banded 4/6mm pellet has been working best but method feeder to the island or pellet waggler is also catching.
SIBLINGS A Fished quite well throughout the week with carp to 15lb ,f1s to 6lb and some nice sized skimmers being caught in nets to around 80lb. Mugging has beeen catching the bigger carp but pole fished meat ,corn or banded pellet has been working well fished short or down the margins for everything else.
SIBLINGS B Nets to around 60lb best with f1s from 1-4lb making up the bulk of the catches but a few double figurebcarp also featured in nets. Paste ,meat or pellet down the margins or tight upto the far bank reeds has worked best with pegs 1-5 and 14-18 down the arms the better areas.

ANNIVERSARIES Steady but not spectacular sport this week with catches to around 60lb best. Pellet waggler or bomb with 6mm pellet has been good and pole fished caster or pellet shallow on a jigga is also starting to work well.

WILLOW Nice consistent sport from all arond the pool with but the hot pegs have been 1,5 and 8. Carp to 15lb and f1s to 6lb are coming to waggler with pellet shallow and on the bottom and long pole with maggots, caster or pellet also doing well.
