I’d just like to say what an excellent well kept Fishery old Hough is .I was invited as a guest from crescent anglers .we had 14 fishing on the match .We had the whole lake so it was pegged 7 each side . I drew peg 7 on the car park side .I had a plan and didn’t stick to it .my main attack was 14.5m far bank , slapping because it was warm , and fish margin last hour .How wrong could it be .
My long line I could see carps backs out of the water and couldn’t get a bite . I switched to slapping after one and a half hours and caught one carp. All through the match I fed groundbait , hemp and corn .I ended up going on the bomb , I was catching small carp. I switched to a method feeder and was catching a better stamp.Where did the time go, by the time I’d gone in the margin it was all out .
Here’s some pics and results
