I'm suffering with the "new venue" syndrome. In other words I'm mostly blanking whilst I learn the tricks of the trade on this one. So nothing to report, appart from the fact that I am developing a loathing of our feathered chums that goes well beyond the rational. 
I think I may have to resort either to buying night vision goggles so I can bait up in the pitch dark, or save up and only fish on Fishabil, (80 odd acres and no birds).

I added them too. Some very informative info. I think I'd just use a maggot clip if maggots are fishing well. It appears pegs 16,17,18 are the more favored pegs. May change nearer the time though.
I will ring them later and see if they can accommodate me and help me rid this bad spell I'm having 
|
|
| | | VLT | | Posts: 8907 | | |
|
In reply to Post #206
I follow them on facebook and people have been catching quite regularly, not sure what pegs, but I am fairly sure maggots are doing well. I would take some superglue / cork balls and make a medusa popup rig, sounds like a faff but it's not that bad. Failing that, there's another rig I've seen, where you use a fluoro piece of plastic corn, have a size 14 match hook on the hair, fill the match hook with maggots, then pull it tight to the plastic corn to trap them on.
like this
and this

In reply to Post #200
hey chaps, i was told this would get a better reception on this thread so il paste it in now......
Hey guys, i know this is really early days but i have recently booked a 5 day trip to wyreside with a mate that will be in june! I have been to wyreside about 4 previous times but have never done longer than 48 hours. We have been told that we can choose whichever lake we want to fish on and im trying to decide which lake to choose. Its definitely between bantons and sunny one, sunny one i have fished before and would definitely feel more at home, however i have always wanted to try bantons although it is much bigger with less fish. I suppose it comes down to the question, do i commit 5 days to sunny 1 and feel more confident of more fish still to a good weight, or commit to bantons and possibly not have as many fish but be in with the chance to get a much bigger one! Anyone who is used to fishing this place i would love some input on what you feel the best option would be and how to approach the particular lake for spending this amount of time there in terms of baiting up ect thanks!

Hello Boys.
Fished wyerside last week for a cheeky 24 hrs. I was on Sunny 1, Peg 7. Used Cell, New Grange, Fished the Method, Zig Rig, Pop up, Wafters. fished the gravel bar half way and various other places. didnt have a sniff :-(
Only 1 fish came out whilst i was there, on peg 5. Never mind. I will be back!!
Going to Linear to hopefully fish Hunts Corner at the end of the month. Gonna Try CC Moore Meteor Boillies. Anybody used these?

I'm no expert on the canals by any stretch but I do know the Lancaster has done fish to 20's, and they are quite commonplace... as for tips, no idea, just bait up and then turn up!

In reply to Post #128
that may be mate but im just looking to go somewhere different to be honest. only fishing sunny 2 as we are limited to 24hrs.
to be honest im sick of the same old places i go. joining a syndi myself in january. so not many more chances to go fishing this year really, apart from this 24 hour then down south for a week from the 25th sept at linear, which im looking forward to alot.
ive never considered a canal. could you pm me some more infomation. where, bait, tips e.t.c
thanks mate

In reply to Post #127
It is an extremely busy and expensive day ticket water. The fish are very pressured and not that big either. Don't want to put a downer on it but it's not the kind of place I'd go to relax!
Greg and Dean fish the syndicate which is different.
Could you not find a nice quiet spot on the Lancaster canal and chuck a bit of bait in a few days before?

In reply to Post #83
is it any good? for a social I mean?
no and no lol
i fish it on and off depending what mood im in (if i can tolerate knobheads) it gets rammed with noddies casting everywhere, there are no pegs, no rules and no max amount of people aloud on the lake so to many people fish it at once.
as for the social side the nearest shop is about 15 mins away and there is no facilities on site
can be a runs water at times, other times you can blank (i blanked last week on a 24hr  )
|
|
|
|
|
only waters i can think of are boundary, pendle, wyreside, barston (bit further away), llyn y gors (in decent weather!), gwynedd lakes (what was the last one there like?)

There's a place near Blackpool that might be ok, can't for the life of me remember the name of it but it's a bit of a runs water.
It's not four seasons. Think it begins with a C?

Well if it's wyreside we could get Greg or Dean to sort it out I don't fancy sorting this time but they are regulars there I only suggested it
|
|
|
|

fair enough, wyreside sounds much better then!
|
|
|
|

due to the bad publicity of lesiure lakes i would not be wanting to fish this place for a social

I'm up for it dates dependent Ste! Would prefer it to wyreside to be honest, it's only 20 mins down the road from me! and it's a lot cheaper.
We should aim to fill the lake thoguh, would be much better that way.
I'm 100% certain cahors will be up for it too.
|
|
|
|
In reply to Post #58
when did you last go? Some of the pegs are excellent! A few Large doubles with woodchip. I'd say 10 decent pegs for bivvies at least.
Its quite safe too as she locks the gate at 8pm. I'm not saying its the best venue but not a bad alternative if the price is right. Theyve just stocked some more commons in to 22lb aswell.

In reply to Post #55
thing with the leisure lakes is we wont be able to leave gear and go for a drinky and some of the pegs are crap
|
|

|
As long as it's reasonably local I'm up for it. No wheels at the mo

In reply to Post #55
alrite lads seeing as we have the ball partialy rolling lets see how many people wont to go and then we can go from there was aout yesterday at hampton springs and had an 18lb and a 16lb mirror on SPAM BROKE A BLANK OF NEARLY 8 MONTHS PHEW
|
|
|
|
how about leisure lakes, Southport?
It's not a bad venue, large tidy pegs, can drive to most of them, clean facilities, club house and cafes basically on the bank. Quite an easy water too. Done two 48 hour session recently and landed 4 carp to 15lbs but some catching quite a few more and they go to mid-upper twenties.
Wasn't plan on fishing there much more on weekends as it gets very noisy with the clubhouse and campers but for a social maybe not so bad!
Sure if there's enough of us I'll get it for £15 per person per night.

Well I've opened my 2011 account. did an overnighter last weekend and had 8 runs for 4 fish landed. Lost a couple in weed and dropped a few runs. Not bad all in all, apart from having to hold the brolly down half the night cos of the wind!

had my first days fishing in about a year on sat, had a great day with family, my dad hasn't been fishing in 2 years and even longer for my twin bro. We all caught too! made up, had a nice mirror about 9-10lb on large halibut pellet and a common about 10/11lb on free lined bread crust.
Me and my dad are going to do a day or a night somewhere later this week, possibly leaisure lakes near southport? And we need a new day ticket for a 3 night session soon seeing as little wyreside has closed down!

Had a day on the middle lake at Baden Hall at the weekend with the old fella-had 10 carp to mid doubles. It's a bit of a pastie water but usually good for a few runs and a bend in the rod. Not done any roper carping since france in september- just don't seem to have the time.
