Feedback & Reports

Hard fishing in the morning session with one fish caught.
Wind in the morning and after lunch warm and sunny ☀️ with another four fish caught. It was hard work. All fish caught on a Black Pennell.
Waders or wellingtons required as it’s very boggy around the lake .
Two of us ???? and we will return.

5 Trout

4 Barbel, 4 Chub

Very nice beat with good access. The water was very low when we fished but the chub were feeding and easy to catch, although average weight was less than a pound. Two barbel caught late afternoon on sweetcorn. other fish were 4 dace, one perch and an eel.
We had a bizarre incident during the day. One of our group reeled in his rod to help another of the group land a barbel, leaving it on the bank with the bait(artificial corn) still on the hook. When he returned after 10 minutes the rod had vanished. Unless it had been stolen by a group of passing kayakers, which seems unlikely, we can only surmise that the bait had been taken by a swan which had then dragged the rod into the water before breaking free. Moral of the story is I guess, never leave a rod unattended even if the bait is not in the water!
