anyone know of a oxygen crash at sandhurst recently.i.e within the last 6 months...seen a tiktok video saying that Nige's fish and a few of the other biguns have died.

we're booked on next week and would like to know what we're fishing for and maybe adjust the expectation of what we could catch

Saw a few social media videos of Nigel, Ian Russell and others doing well on there over the winter. Not heard of a fish kill.

I know I'm ignorant and uninformed. I assumed the fish was named after a captor named Nigel. So it just a randomly named fish. Fair enough.

Thanks, that would have been the obvious one to guess at. However one should never assume anything..

20 of us fished it last July. Torrential downpour the first night. I was in the swim directly opposite the car park and my bivvy had an inch of water in it. Glorious sunshine the next day. Horrendously weedy. 1 fish out between 20 of us.

we've just come back from there, we done 11am thu to 10am Sunday. the bailif confirmed they lost 12 fish in a oxygen crash, one of them being Nigel fish....however, 13 of us fished, 12 caught. there was 1 x 40 11 x 30, the rest 20s,some high twenty too. 27 fish caught in total. the fish were spread out all over. the lad in the pipes had it right off with 5 over 30 and 3 high 20s. one.of the best socials we've had on there in a good few years.
Are you sure?
