REPORT
MOLANDS   Molands is still a little patchy with the unsettled weather affecting sport.  The most consistent area of the pool is the Scarecrow Point from pegs 40 – 48 with carp, F1’s, roach and skimmers showing to various tactics.  Pole and pellet, pellet feeder and bomb and bread have all accounted for a few fish over the past week.  Other notable pegs have been 2, 8 – 12, 15, 22 – 27 and 54 – 58.
GEARYS   Not heavily fished this week but those who did have found the skimmers and roach feeding best.  Catches to 20lb have been caught along the high bank with pole tactics working best and expander pellet, caster and maggot the top baits.
LITTLE GEARYS   The most consistent pool at the moment with catches to over 30lb but fish are being caught all around the pool.  Pellet feeder tight up to the island on long pole with pellet or chopped worm and caster the best approach.  Best pegs 7 – 17, 21 and 24 – 29. 
WILLOW   Pegs 5 and 6 still the top pegs with 5 fishing well to a feeder fished tight up to the island and 6 is producing good catches of carp on long pole and corn fished down the margin into the corner.  Skimmers, roach and F1’s are showing to pole and pellet/caster/maggot on the other pegs.
GRATUITIES   Dobbing bread or corn on the pole along the margins has been working well for carp from 2 – 6lb with pegs 1, 15 and 16 all fishing well to this tactic.  On the other pegs, pole and caster is accounting for mixed nets of roach, skimmers, crucians and the odd carp or tench.
