General Comments:

I think if it had a feeding plan and the smaller fish netted, would let the other bigger fish grow, as most of the fish where between 20lb 26lb average

Details of your catches:

We caught that many carp we lost count! Smallest was about 12lb, biggest was just over 30lb, average was 22lb

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Best tactics was simple rig wafter , pop up or bottom bait with pellet, corm, hemp and boilie over the top

Details of your catches:

Had a very good week at Vincons. Me and my daughter fished only days. My daughter only fished the odd time and had some good fish. Best being a common fo 31lb 2oz. For the 6 days as I did not fish the Saturday I had a total of 58 fish for 1183lb 4.oz including my biggest fish a common of 31lb 12oz.
Also had some nice roach and tench.
Also had a surprise when I was fishing 15 yards out with a small method feeder on my quiver tip for roach when a 25lb mirror carp picked up the bait. Was quite a battle on the rod with only 9lb line and a size 14 hook. After around 15 minutes and multiple runs to the middle of the lake I managed to land it. I feel like I could have caught more but was struggling to keep 3 rods in the water. Had multiple double takes and even a treble take. I noted a lot of the fish looked like they were ready to spawn. The weather was due to get better on the Wednesday and sure enough the fish started spawning. I still fished and just fished to the middle of the lake and still managed to catch.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

Fruit tella pop ups and pineapple pop ups fished over boillies corn pellets tiger nuts and glugs. No problem with crayfish this time.

We had 123 carp from 3lb upto 27lb 8oz. We also had plenty of small carp, roach and rudd on the feeder.

Your best tactics/bait/rigs:

We caught on anything we tried including wafters, snowmen rigs and even 4 or 5 bottom baits to try pick out bigger fish. We used DNA slk and bug boilies and pellet as feed.

General Comments:

We fished from the dam wall across to the far margin near the trees. We only used 6 rods between us as we struggled to even keep those in the water. We had double, triple and even quadruple hookups. We only fished days and had a problem with our baitboat half way into the week or we would have caught lots more. Its a lovely venue and great to teach the kids. The kids loved the pool as well. A few bigger fish would be nice but the non stop action made up for that.
