Bonjour. Kevin. Let's start with 1 its 130 euros for 10 k.
You can buy 5 k at a time can't always stick it in the frezza as don't always have the room
as can be over 50 ppl fishing at dream lakes each week.
So that's lots of bait an if everyone wants to keep if frozen
that's a lot of fridges?.

As for cats in 4 yes you will get them on fishmeal bait so if you want them take it, me I would not go with it, get yourself the cell or the hybrid.
you can buy popups an dips but will cost more. Than if you take your own
Not sure on shelf life bait as the office. An as for swim Fishing left or right yes as long as your not in someone els water so to speak.

Hope that helps a bit. Loads of love from Sid

Hi again folks

Seems like a question with more than one line goes unreplied on here

I try again.

On Google i have Measured dl4 to be about 120m wide so obviously no chance of me fishing far margin on standard bait runner reels. So that q is answered. About 140 long just for the record.

1. What is the price of buying cell at the lakes? Someone must know this. It's 95 quid in advance but if I go empty how much is it there? If you pre-buy from them, can you pick up some of the bait at start of week then rest later in the week? I am thinking of avoiding having to air-dry.

2. Do they stock plenty of pop ups and dips incase I go empty?

3. Do they have a freezer I can use for bait I take with me or do I have to air- dry? This is an important part of my preparation as I have decided I will take fishmeals with me.

4. How many cats are floating about in dl4? Is it realistic to hook a few if I use fishmeals or is it something that just turns up now and again? The online catch reports don't appear to list up catfish in a consequent manner so it's difficult for me to tell.

5. Is it allowed to use shelf life boilies, and if I were to pre-crush some boilies into chops or crumb before I go, will this be something the bailifs get upset about as they won't be able to tell if its crushed boilies contra ground bait. Should I wait with that until I get there?

6. Finally, if I fish say swims 5-8 is it possible for me to fish left and right rods along that banks margin ( working on the basis that the rest of the group are fishing swims 1-4 on the other bank). Or are there trees poking out further than the swims so I can't cast sideways along my own bank?

Thanks for any feedback in advance.

If anyone has some pictures of this lake to share it would be great. Pictures on web site are not great and although I have trolled you tube and internet for all videos and pictures I could get, I still can't work out what the margins look like around the lake and whether it's possible to fish a rod left and right of you own swim or whether overhanging tres etc block that.

Kevin

Hi folks

Well I went ahead and booked my to trip - Dl4 on 27 sept. There was already three booked On that lake so fingers crossed their a decent bunch of blokes and I will manage to fit in.

Anyway, I would like to take some bait with me as well as play it safe on one of the lakes own baits.

So my questions.

1. Which of the baits should I get from them in advance? the cell, hybrid or their cell cream specials? What about if I go empty for bait. Everyone says they are expensive to buy without pre- order, but what is the price of 10kg og boilie over there that's not preordered?

2. What about pop ups for making snow-man? Should i take all pop ups and plastic corn with me or does the shop stock allpop ups I need at sensible prices?

3. I was thinking of taking a fish meal I have confidence in from uk as an alternative. Bad idea or go for it? Would a 14mm bait be too small? Was thinking of something a bit different to the usual baits most people use.

4. It's unclear to me whether there are any cats to speak of in dl4 or not. Is there a real chance of hooking a couple of cats or have they all been stuffed inn dl5?

5. What is the casting distance from one bank to the other side? Anyone measured it? Realistic to fish to the opposite margin from the one bank if all anglers camp on the one side or is it a bit far?

6. If I were to be the only one on the far bank, is it possible for me to sling the right and left rods along my own margins or are there trees in the way preventing me fishing say 30 meters to my left and right margins?

7. Any other tips?

Interested in a PM if anyone has specific tips or extra info. That they don't want to put on the open forum.

Best regards and thanks for the help folks.

Kevin
