Details of your catches:

26 carp in total (of which 3 were grass carp) plus a few small carp and tench. A number of dropped fish. Best grass carp was just over 40 pounds and the best common carp was 35 pounds.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Silkworm leader with blow back rig (also tried flurocarbon d rig but that did not work particularly well)

Were the facilities what you expected?

As expected given they have been recently renovated

Were you happy with them?

Very happy, good shower and toilet facilities and plenty of fridge and freezer space despite the Jonchery complex being fully booked for the week

Would you recommend the venue to a friend?

Yes - this is a very well run fishery by Mark and Anita. Mark's deep knowledge of both carp fishing and the Jonchery complex is clear an he is very willing to help anglers catch.

Would you recommend the services to a friend?

Yes

General Comments:

In truth, quite a slow week's fishing by Jonchery 7s high standards (albeit I only fished after dark twice and even then only until about 1 am). Despite a thunderstorm on the Sunday afternoon the fishing on J7 never really got going until Mark flushed some water through the lake mid week and that livened things up; of the 26 fish landed 10 were landed on Thursday and 4 on the Friday. It is worth mentioning that the venue video does not really do the lake justice; the lake looks much more natural given the trees have grown significantly since it was filmed. It was a great place to fish for a week.

Details of your catches:

Great weeks fishing, 62 fish for the two of us to 49lb a week after spawning.
