REPORT

MOLANDS    Fishing very hard this week with catches to over 20lb best at the moment.  Fish are still being caught all around the pool but in a lot less numbers with mainly F1’s, skimmers and crucians providing the most bites.  Long pole with pellet or caster is the best tactic.  The Scare Crow Point from peg 43 – 48 is the best area.

GEARYS   Andy Findley is the man in form at the fishery and proved why again on Saturday catching carp to over 15lb from peg 29 in a 56lb catch and he caught on corn and pole fished to the little island.  Generally though, the fishing has been harder with less carp showing around the pool.  Skimmers and crucians made up the better catches along the high bank but pole fished caster, red maggot or pellet is also successful fished long at 10 -13 metres.

LITTLE GEARYS    The top end of the pool from pegs 1 – 15 has been the best area with F1’s providing the bulk of the action.  Sport has slowed with 30 – 40lb needed to win.  The best approach has been a small feeder to the island with pellet or dead maggot and short pole with caster, maggot or pellet.

GRATUITIES    A quiet week but the few pleasure anglers that fished had decent sport with tench to 4lb, carp to 6lb, crucians and skimmers showing.  Pole fished pellet or caster over micros was the best tactic.

SIBLINGS    Pleasure anglers reported saw good catches with skimmers, roach, crucians, tench and carp being caught.  A fishery regular had a good day catching roach and skimmers on the pole with maggot and was capped by a 18½lb common which took him about 20 minutes to land.  The best area has been the point on pegs 1 – 5.

WILLOW    Pegs 4 and 5 on the reed beds have been the best pegs producing mixed nets of carp, tench, skimmers and F’s to pole and corn or pellet.

REEDYBAY/FIRST BAY/CRESCENT & ALDER   The most consistent pools on the fishery with mixed catches of roach, skimmers, small carp and tench coming to float fished maggot or caster.
