General Comments:

The fishing was picking up more through the week, bit of a slow start but once the fish found the baited spots they got more and more confident on the feed. Was really pleased to get a new PB common and lake record. Will be going back for sure. Rick the bailiff was as helpful as ever and even sneaked one out himself.

Details of your catches:

7 fish, 1 x 30, 4 x 20's, 2 x doubles.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Boilie over crushed boilies, small amounts. caught fish from different spots over the lake through the week. Fishing was more difficult this time as with all the rain, the water was really coloured up.

General Comments:

First time at Lilly Pool, only had 1 carp and 1 pike by monday morning due to weather conditions, gale force winds and rain. Fished well monday to thursday once settled. Had bad weather again on friday all day and night, but caught another 4 carp in the last 3 hours before i left on saturday morning. Rick the bailiff and Martin the owner are great guys and will help you out with anything you need. If could have fished straight through, could have had between 40-50 fish i think as only really fished for 5 out of the 7 days due to weather.
