General Comments:

The swim offers the chance to fish both the margins and open water, which allows you to adapt your fishing based on the weather and your own preferences. Highly recommended location, excellent stock! The on-site bailiff is attentive to customers, takes time with them, and has a good sense of humour! The manager's father is super friendly!

Details of your catches:

34 bites, 29 carp landed

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Stick fishing on the edges and heavy baiting in open water every evening with 20 litres of pellets plus boilies. Fished away from the bait for the first six nights and on the bait on the last night to give the fish confidence!

General Comments:

I discussed with owner Kenny during the session, about allowing braided mainline, in my opinion, it would be a big advantage for getting fish out of snags. With a minimum of 2 meters of leader, I don’t see any risk for the fish, and it would significantly reduce break-offs.
Thanks again for the session, see you next year!
