As i have a day off befor i fly to tenerife i thought id have a day fishing, but as tk as changed the dat eof his next match from the 27th i thought id got to chorley springs but for some reason i cant find the website any more to see if any of the new pools have been opened yet.

Big Baz fished it last week for the first time and 'sacked up'

Said it would have made a good venue for us shame it's a tad small with only 19 pegs (I think he said)'

cheers tk. i will go over there then. I just didnt want to go all over there and find it closed when i could of gone some were else

I said that last year that it would of made a good match venue but it hadn't enough pegs plus when most of the pegs are in use the fish seem to pack up and go on a day trip.

Same every where ME - even on these 'you'll need 100lb' venues ::)

definitely open ME..havnt fished it for a couple weeks,he has now done the drive and carparks.

only usually fish the top pool but have "filled me net " the last couple of visits (which is unusal for me)

dont know the peg numbers but i fished the top pool, far bank tight to the island in a cut out the fish had made,used corn over pellets.
week b4 carp didnt want to know so used big punched bread @ about 4 metres with lqqy feed and never had a sniff of any carp but plenty of bream to 3lb and tench biggest about 5lb on the peg opposite.

nice place ..bailiffs dont bother u much i like the bit when i asked him about the fishery rules and his reply was "common sense "

Thanks for that advice obi. thats what i liked about it when i used to go last year, you paid the baliff and he left you alone less you spoke to them to ask for info/ advice ect. The peg i used to fish on top pool was as you go in to the pool the 2nd peg round to the left. At about 7 meters there is a hole so when you plum up you get a depth then you find the hole. I have always had loads of tench from fishing in that hole on corn over pellet .
