Sorry everyone bit late posting this and the next couple of blogs...(2 months late lol). I was made redundant from my job at the end of March so I have taken the opportunity to do some fishing. :)
This session was late April and quite a warm day. I arrived at Dobsons and as usual walked around the lake. Not that there was much need mind the carp were all on the surface only 100 yards or so up from the car park. Having quickly got around to the swim close to the fish I proceeded to set up a zig rig. I already knew the depth of the area and set up 12" below the surface. The hook bait was a piece of pink foam. I couldn't of had the rig in place 5 minutes when it tore off. The first carp shown above was 1.91Kg (4 lb 3.4oz in old money).
I kept the same setup and bait and was rewarded with the carp left. 2.54 Kg or 5 lb 9.6 oz
The next fish, another common, was caught on a red Amber berry popup. 2.63 Kg or 5 lb 12.4 oz
The last fish of the session was the biggest at 3.64 Kg or 8 lb.
Great session first proper session were lots of fish were fairly easily caught. Rather funny that each fish was bigger than the last. Is summer finally here?
Blog later....
