Manor Farm Leisure - Middle and Ash Pools

Back to Manor Farm Leisure, ain't be there for while. On Middle Pool and Ash Pool.

Drew peg 2 Middle Pool, which has been really good, however the wind blowing the other way... A bit of struggle, a few stockies and a couple of units for 69lb and a default section win. Cheers Luke.

See video below.

All weights below, Ash Pool fished really well, 6 weights over 100lb. All weights below.

Redhill Fishery - Pennys

2023-03-30T14:11:00.000+01:00

I can't get my head around Redhill Fishery at the moment.

I had 94lb for 10th out of 17 anglers !! So just shows how good the fishing is, the locals are definitely giving me a "pasteing".

I haven't got the feeding correct and not knowing how to fill in the gaps of me not catching. I wanna "ping it" but not sure that's correct, especially in this deep water. Catching shallow has proven to be difficult in two visits.

Rather than doing potentially boring write ups, I have started doing videos that sums up my matches, and I feel that it's way more entertaining and informative?

Hopefully these basic videos will give you a good indicator of what matches I fish and honest reports.... "Caught three in the first 20 minutes and then they rocked up with 30 minutes to go. Weighed 128lb for the win". 🥱

Ivy House Lakes - Two dayer

2022-12-28T18:42:00.005+00:00

Its that time of year again where Ivy House Lakes run their annual pairs match. Me and Jason Crump just missed out on top spot last year to Dwayne and Martin. So hopefully we can do better this year?

Day One

The draw couldn't of been more better for me, as Jas drew me peg 9 on Heron. Which is the best peg on the lake in my opinion, especially this time of year. As it's wide and the fish just seem to wanna be here. Simple for bait, maggots and maybe a bit of bread.

Basically, I caught on a maggot feeder and maggots on the pole. Really simple match and simple bait tray. Happy days, won the lake and match, but more importantly Jason done well to come half way from a very tough draw on OML (Old Match Lake).

We had 7 points and was currently third.

Day two

We swap round, so I'm on OML and Jason drew me peg 7, which only 4lb come off the day before with 9 points (11 been last and 1 been first). Jas drew peg 3 on Heron which I'd fancy as there is a lot of room, but the wind is howling into his face.

It was a VERY slow start for me and the first 40 mintues I hadn't had a bite, Andy Lloyd next to me had one decent Carp, but otherwise it was tough. Luckily I caught a skimmer on the pole over C Food Expander mix 😋.

I got odd bites, definitely a waiting game. I had 12 skimmers and 1 tiny roach for 10lb and 8 Carp for 48lb and weighed 58lb to win the lake abs second overall individually.

Jas struggled the last two hours and saw his section points slip away, so he came sixth again, but it was enough for us to just win the pairs, as we won on weight (same points as Dwayne and Henry).
