Hi there,
Thought you might like
to hear of a fantastic mornings fishing we had on sunday the 13th of July.
We decided to fish the
black horse pound as we had fished the lake the previous week and been bothered
by rudd all day.
We set up at the
town end of the pound opposite the gardens. I started off by feeding 6 large
balls of superlake laced with chopped worm and liquidised sweetcorn at 11m.
I fished a worm head
over the top on a size 18 to 0.10 and a 0.75gr float.
After 5 mins the float
buried and i was playing a nice 4 pound Tench, straight back out and
another was on.
Re fed and back over
and quickly had another tench and then a quality Bream around 4.5 pounds.
I have now been fishing 20 mins and had 3 tench and a bream.
Another 20 mins later
and the firsat boat of the day comes through a little early at 6.45am.
After the boat i re
fed 8 balls again with worm and corn. What happened next i will remember
for a long time.
Between 7am and 9.45ami
had 13 Bream from 8oz to 5 pounds all to pole and worm at 11m for a
total weight of over 50 pounds consisting of 4 tench 13 bream and bits and
a very satisfied new club member.
Oh and my mate had 25
pounds on the next peg so all in all we spent 4 and a half hours fishing
and caught over 70 pounds of fish, its just a shame about the boats.
Thanks Devizes AA
Thanks for the report Mark , the Canal is really worth fishing at the moment. There are also reports of lots of Carp on the pounds below Caen Hill. Tight Lines. D.A.A
