Well done Dodge

I wondered why you wanted to put the results up Dodge.

Well done great result.

#6

Just had a look at the website Dodge.

Cant understand their pricing.

Match bookings £6 a peg
Day Tickets £5

Seems odd seeing as day ticket anglers usually spend a lot more time on the water. All the waters down here are the same price for matches and day tickets and a lot give a discount for booking a whole lake.

Shallow TK ?? .... i caught em all at depth in 10 ft of water

a 1 gram rig bulked with number 8`s and 3 number 10 droppers, 0.10 mainline with a 0.92 hooklength and a 18's hook (808) ....... fed 8 - 10 red & bronze maggots via a very small home made kinder pot thingy after every fish

...... 6-8 latex through a match top 2 fished at 13mtrs , Started on the tip across with bomb and hair rigged corn hoping for 1 or 2 early mug 4lb class carp but didnt have a single liner ::) ::) so crappity smack that off and caught nearly 50 ide 6 oz to 12 oz

hard work in the strong wind but very enjoyable

All silvers endpeg

Are you gonna put it in the magazine

Does a Barbel count as a silver

#13

Only if its caught in a river

#14

Only if its caught in a river

Does that include Monks davec

No fishing for me today (sunday) ........ the wife is working a double shift at the hospital so i am keeing an eye on me 3 teenagers ....... dads taxi etc ::)

Yesterday (saturday) at Blundells it was decisions, decisions

some good carp weights came out on the midweeker and the weather had been very mild all week .......... silvers or carp ???
Everyone it seemed had decided to fish pellet, i decided against this and opted to fish maggot for everything that swims again like the week before. Got to my peg....... 51 on Ash pool and there were carp blowing right across on the tip / waggler line

shall i stick to my guns or target the carp or fish for both

. The problem when targeting the ide is as soon as you come off them / stop feeding they back off and it takes ages to get them feeding again , so its a all or nothing jobbie ........ reluctantly i decided to ignore the carp and concentrated on my original plan to stick with the ide ............ in a tight frame i managed to weigh 41.0.0 consisting of 74 ide to 12 oz, 2 small tench and a solitary barbel of a pound for another win beating some very close pellet carp weights
