In reply to Post #1 Can't comment on the venue as never been but don't worry about bait on the tunnel, I've never had an issue or heard of anyone else having trouble

In reply to Post #6 It's taken them a while to roll that out fully. Gone are the days of trying to reach, seat belt off, f**k still can't reach, run round the other side...beep beep, sacrebleu

In reply to Post #5 Emovis Tag - a must have really, brilliant bit of kit, especially if travelling alone and in a right-hand-drive car.

In reply to Post #1 Hi mate. I was there at Easter with my son and had a great time fishing B2. Don't worry too much about the silt, they recommend 12 inch rigs but I was using 8-9 inch rigs and catching and getting very good hook holds. Bait wise if the fish are on ypu you can get through loads of bait, but don't pile it in, fish for a bite at a time. B1 fished very poorly the week we were there but a fortnight before it fished it's head off. Take the boilies but use the pellets and maize they sell on site, buy them a bucket at a time and collect them at breakfast or evening meal. It was the first time I've ever used a bait boat but would say they are definitely needed as the lake is so shallow it would be a nightmare trying to get a decent amount of particle out to your spots (spodding is not recommended due to depth and I think that's good advice). They guys there are great and will give you sound advice, listen to them and enjoy yourself

In reply to Post #1 Drop miniwelsh a pm if he doesn't see this? He was at BL in March iirc
Edit, just fish with what your confident in and adapt if needed, they're just Carp.

Well guys it’s official it’s now 2 weeks today until I set of my first foreign adventure
Absolutely craping myself but excited at the same time
Any does or don’t and I do understand they are carp which are the same as our carp but with a bit more sun ☀️
Will be fishing b1 next to the caravan swim
I’ve read bait boats are a must and it’s silty never fished in deep silt so will 12 inch rigs be better than my standard 6
Also I’ve asked before I think but I’m using the tunnel what are they like bait wise I’ve got a 25kg sack of pellets and 30 kg of boilies or I’m I better not risking it
Thanks anything I’ve missed just let me know thanks
