Trap Weekly Report

Updated 19/5/26

 

Following the introduction of just a few hundred Ide this winter, the level of suport has increased beyond belief.

I now think it fair to say that good catches can be made from any peg on the pool, but of course, like any fishery

some pegs are better than others. 

We currently run a 3hr evening match on wednesdays, and all have been won with over

30lb of mainly silvers.

The last one was won with 55lb, and last place was just under 20lb.

Best method is without doubt the pole fished either on the bottom, but probably no

deeper than 3m, or probably better and more consistent, maggot fished shallow.

Best bait is maggot but casters, worm and corn are all catching fish.

Best pegs, well this is difficult, but notable catches have come from the following;

pegs 8, 12, 29, 20, 21, 27, 29, 32, 35, 36, 37,40, 42, 43, 45

As before, visiting anglers can just select a peg, set up and fish. A bailiff will come

along and sell you a permit, but please, cash only.

There is a recent rule change you should be aware of, juniors (under 17) can no

longer purchase a day ticket unless accompanied by a responsible adult.

Junior members under 14 must also be accompanied by a responsible adult. (no change)

 

 

 

 

 

 

.

 

Day tickets are available but only from 8am.

Fishing is strictly dawn till dusk, but we do have a small night syndicate that will bailiff the water after dark.

All permits are available on the bank. We can only accept cash.

Keepnet rules.

If you choose to use a keepnet, then the following must be adhered to.

1. Dip nets in the solution provided.

2. F1`s and carp under 5lb must go in a separate net to silvers.

3. Carp over 5lb to be returned immediately

4. Bream over 1lb in weight must also be returned to the water immediately

5. If lucky enough, a maximum of 40lb of fish to be held in any one net.

6. Fish to be held in a net for a maximum of 6 hrs, all nets to be emptied and removed from the water 1 hr before dusk.

We recently stocked with 1000 F1`s and they are begining to show in numbers, in particular from the shallow pegs.
