Nearly all the big catches come out at about 30 wraps or more and nearly all of them are using bait boats and worms.
Although the people catching never mention the boats(or the worms)
🙂
Peg 2 is where most people want to be..

I had a good hit spodding over zigs a few years ago. I was in peg 15 fishing close to (into) the out of bounds behind the island. Fair old chuck i think

I think you can only use 1 zig now though

Solid bags with a dozen spombs over the top seemed to work recently, some swim boundaries are questionable.... Some anglers think they can send their boat anywhere....

Yep, I've had some issues on there with morons crossing into my bit of water. They need to ban bait boats, always create issues when in the hands of noddies.

What hook baits do people tend to do well on? I have bottoms, pop-ups and some tigers but will prob decide when im there what to use. Massive head if fish in there so may end up re-stocking from the shop if i can get on the fish. 20 lads on a charity match and swims are drawn.

Worms are brilliant on Berners if you want to spend a few quid

One of our group caught 39 fish and another 36 or something like that, all the people with boats, worms and maggots caught a quite a few fish, the people casting and without maggots and worms really struggled..
Also the next group of people (22) came on and no-one had boats, they caught 4 fish between them. I lost 2 fish..
The angler with 39 fish used 10 kilos of worms and gallons and gallons of red maggots.
