Details of your catches:

Fishing was hard (but you expect this at a venue of this calibre) Medhi met us, gave us some handy tips, the key, and left us alone. He's a great guy. We had 18 fish in total. Five 50s seven 40s five 30s and two 20s. The poisson chat were active but with fake corn they left us alone. Second trip to old oaks this year and we hope to return. The gunslinger fished peg 1, Jonny fished 3 and I was on 4. All pegs fished well Most fish were caught during early morning (in daylight, dusk and at night) only 5 caught in daylight. The cabin is functional and the shower is great. The weather was hot, up in the 30s during the day but the evenings and night were lovely.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Bait boat under the far marginal trees. Plastic sweetcorn. Praying to the carp gods and my faithful carp whistle.

General Comments:

Considering how hot the weather was we had a good result. I did invest in a portable shower from Amazon (£38). So during the day I could cool off and at night I could have a shower without needing to go to the cabin The fish were in good condition and its been a fantastic trip

General Comments:

A good week for Reece who fished 1 & 2s water, a bit of a shame that the scales didn't register a true weight for the long common, but he still had a great week. For me and my son fishing from swim 3, picked up a few lovely fish but we did struggle due to the fish being in front of 1 and 2
