A good week for catches with  carp and silvers all caught in respectable numbers considering water temperatures and quantity of rain fall, and frosts this week. Getting onto shoals is a must for good weight for example Sunday John Foster produced 45lb 4oz of Lookout peg 32  with good back up weights.  Be prepared for very wet banks and thermals in the water.
