Simple Match Fishing Forum

With just over a month to go to the opening match of the 2010 calander, who is actually ready and raring to go?

I have not been out since November and have a sneaking feeling my flask is still in my bag

I will be there on the 27th to add another new venue to the list. Just got to find out what we are likely to catch?

well if Dave C has booked it'smost likley you will only catch FROG'S 

Well only 3 or 4 of of the club have fished the lake before Keith so its going to be a challenge for everyone.

If nothing else comes of this thread at least I have sparked a response from the nomadic one.

Dave

Any dates for the members yet. PS always plus one guest for me.

Keith,

The main thing you'll need is a good windbreak - cos it sure do blow 

never fished lake 4 are there any barbel in there dave

keith wrap up warm mate its about 15 degrees colder at monks with the windchill

Now now lads dont put him off already. I took your comfort into account when booking the lake and chose the one that has a bit more shelter. There are some trees around it and plenty of islands to provide a windbreak.

On that basis I expect the wind force to be reduced to a comfortable 60 mph.

Just a gentle breeze, should give a nice gentle ripple if nothing else.

OK then guys depths baits species etc. Please

Tench, Carp, Chub and Barbel as far as I'm aware, and I would imagine something around 5ft to be the maximum depth, though I could be wrong on that. I've only fished it a couple of times Keith.

bound to be a few cat fish left in there too

It was pretty much drained right down Clive. The JCB was actually in it digging it out when they redid it.

I was fishing lake 2 when they netted it. The nets were bursting with carp.

I hope they remembered to put them all back.

There are some big tench in there but according to Ron in the shop they hardly showed last year.
