Holly Tudor (Bawburgh) had a great day yesterday (Thurs 25th Aug) and caught 5  double figure carp to 15lb! 

Holly was fishing the Pleasure Lake from peg 32 and caught her fish about 3 foot from the staging and fished a sweetcorn hook bait on the bottom whilst feeding 6mm Barford pellet.  Holly should be sending me some photos soon.

Several good catches being reported form the Day ticket lakes. 

Malcolm Joyce (Honingham) fished peg 1 in the bay on the Pleasure Lake and had 20 carp to 16lb.  He was fishing to his left (near the bush) and used an 8mm banded pellet tipped with a Marukyu JPZ (pellet,) feeding 2mm Barford pellet.  This session was last week and this week he had 18 carp from the same peg and same method.
