Nemo does it again for the Ladies!!!!!!, 1st Oct

On holiday here for the second time this year with her husband Peter, Debbie Wright had her eye on the ‘Ladies Lake Record’ title (and the accompanying bottle of wine) from the moment she arrived.

Bankside regular and true gent ‘Nemo’ obliged Debbie by gracing her un-hooking mat in the wee hours of Tuesday morning. Taken on two Mainline pineapple boilies, ‘Nemo’ came in at 20lb 6oz - a good few ounces heavier than when back in September, Dawn Timbers kick started the ladies lake record with the same fish!

A well deserved personalised bottle of white goes to our new ‘Ladies Lake Record’ holder Debbie.

Well done Debs!!

And we're off!!!, 1st Sep

Dawn Timbers Is the first lady to get herself a personalised white wine award for the Ladies Lake Carp Record, having landed a 19lb 12oz mirror known as Nemo at 3.50 am on the 6th of September.

Dawn commented on how well Nemo behaved himself on the bank for the photos, a true Gent! Dawn is currently here with her husband Martin who has had several fish from 18lb up to 28lb and broken his Common PB with a gorgeous 27lb’er.

Also fishing with them is their son Kieron who has had several good fish from 24lb upwards, and broken his Carp PB with a lovely deep bodied 33lb 6oz Mirror.

Well done Dawn, Keep catching!

New Award for Youngsters, 1st Aug

Adam Goddard (14) of the Rooney party had a wish come true when he landed a 32lb 7oz beast on Tuesday 31st July after only having his rod out for around 15 minutes.

The fish is known as Golddigger and is normally around 39lb in weight but due to heavy spawning has lost over 6lb recently. Adam and his family were so pleased with his catch that we felt we had to invent another award for the younger anglers (under 16’s); he was given a personalised bottle of low alcohol cider with a champagne style cork.

Well done Adam, you showed the big boys how it’s done!!!

We have also decided to do a similar personalised white wine award for the ladies, so come on girls get catching!

9 out 10 Cats prefer Rahja! - (Probably), 1st Jul

9 out 10 Cats prefer Rahja! - (Probably)

Russell Irons of the Pinnuck party came to la Gléhias in search of a PB Catfish and brought with him some lovely smelly purrpose made baits, ranging from fishy meatballs to 35mm crab flavoured pink pellets. He is also fishing for the Carp using Quest Baits Rahja Spice – known to work very well on our lake.

Having failed to find the Cats on the first two nights with his super smelly baits, he had just got all his rods in on the third evening ready for the night ahead, when fifteen minutes later a slow, gentle bite occurred. Suspecting it was a big Carp tentatively picking up the 20mm Rahja on his middle rod, Russell lifted into it to find he had hooked what he came for.

The angry Moggy took around 20 minutes to bank and came in at 38lb 11oz smashing his previous PB and setting a new lake record, excellent stuff!

Well done Russell!
