Larford, Specimen Lake.

#1

1st July.
I think we have the Burr Bank which fished crap yesterday. Lets hope this ain't the case in 2 weeks time.
Think I might buy 20 KG of ground bait and fish the splash waggler

i will sell you some pellets if you want, and its 15 kg of GB not bloody 20. Bert might of got a bit more stuff for his table tackle shop and betty might of worked out what shes charging for a cup of tea and coffee and there might be some sarnies left from our buffet

Im surprised this did not fish better, it's supposed to be a good lake isn't it

me · #4

, it's supposed to be a good lake isn't it

Its supposed to have a tackle shop but it turned out it was old bert with a table in the cafe sell the maver range well tins of corn, bags of pellet and a few bags of ground bait

its supossed to have features

the swans must of ate them.

Its supposed to b a top venue well

theres loads of better venues

#5

Rigs all tied up ready. I hope no one fishes the splash waggler, Tinky should ban it from our match to make it fair for everyone else

#6

The weather is looking a bit bleak for this coming weekend

Hope we will still be able to fish it

Tinky is supposed to be ringing them up.

evening lads,

i dont want to put a downer on things for the weekend for you, but have you phoned up larford to find out if the river is ok as it is right next to the specci lake and it might have an effect on your fishing.

#10

Yes Tinky rang them up yesterday and everything was ok.
The guy told him to ring back tomorrow to double check.

Cheers and fingers crossed

ok mate no probs

splasher waggler and lots of groundbait !!!!

#12

Yup I know thats winning the matches. It won last Saturday when I was there with Maggotdrowners, in fact it was the method used for the top 5 weights.
I ain't fishing it because of 2 reasons.....

I have never fished it before and would want to practice at it first.
I was next to a guy that used 2 big green sensas buckets full of groundbait. The cost is not worth it for the payout of a club match.
I was 17lb behind him. He had all carp and I had all skimmers and bream + 1 small carp.

Its a cracking method that I would deffo like to have a crack at, but not this Sunday

Si Gaz and Alex used 90 quids worth of GB in 3 days between them for that match

#14

Well that's too much for me too spend. Sure you win with that method but the bait outweighs the pickup IF you win.

I'm sittin here with a right ol bloody headache again. I weighed 58lbs to finish 3rd today but in hindsight I could have prob finished 2nd if I'd have not messed about so much with other lines, as I was catching the Bream so well and Kelvin next to me I thought everyone else would be too so I was after bigger fish in the margins etc... Ah well you live and learn.

I caught most of my fish at 6m in about 9ft of water feeding pellet and corn and meat on the hook, I lost a couple of good carp and threw a 2lb Bream back as it jumped out of my hands ::)

There's always next time, but I ain't going if it's gonna rain again coz I'm sick of getting in a mess

Tinky · #16

yes i have the same opinion i messed about to much with the method feeder had 1 good carp on this method but should have stayed on the pole line more, still i bet si is happy first time he has bet me in a yale match

#17

still i bet si is happy first time he has bet me in a yale match

This year you mean.............I got bored of beating you last year

I beat you at Willow marsh anyhoo after your flying start and my super come back
