Just joshin' too mate! It's getting more and more scenic as time goes by, give it another 5-10 years and once it's fully mature, there'll be no finer place to wet a line (on holiday, obviously lol)
PS Everyone, OneCup's mate has just bagged a stunning 54+ Common from heron!

I was just messing mate!!! Shoulders isn't the only reason I'm going there!! Last year I went to a lake that had 1 fish over 40 lb!! It's about the fishery first, and I picked abbey before I realised if be angling for an 80lber!!

If an upper 70 / low 80 doesn't float your boat chap then I think u could be in the wrong job lol! There should be about 10-12 others comfortably over 60 by that stage so sure you'll get over Shoulders' anorexia with them!

Hmmm, I'm out there 2nd and 3rd week of Septemebr. Considering all you have mentioned, I'd calculate that to be right in the middle of her lean spell! Damn!
Oh well I'd say there's still more than enough to make me happy!

Indeed it would! Must be down to the mild nov-feb we had followed by the proper chilly mar-apr?!?! She's a big ol' girl now and needs to feed a lot after a lean spell! Bear in mind also that they'll all be packing it on in preparation for spawning in the near future!

RE: Shoulders
So would that be three captures/hookings in the space of around the same amount of weeks?

One Cup n his mate are up and running! Peter has unfortunately lost a few but his mate is 3-1 up so they're certainly getting amongst them!!

Hi Gents....yes it was her, still feel shaky about the whole episode as I've been after her for many years and feel that was my chance and now it has gone but hey that's fishing......win some and lose some I suppose.
Anyway, Good luck to Onecup and his mate whom wisely jumped in behind me.......I'm pretty sure those pellet rigs are the key to success at the minute ie not a bleep on Boilies
Back in June for another few days and maybe some better luck
Hi Dan....you should've said hello mate....were you sitting on the sofa with a few mates?

@ Dan, check out the posts below, the swims are gonna be 'english-ified' during the winter period this year lol!
@ Jez.. Really?!?! Gutted for ya mate, that's a choker n no mistake!
@ Everyone else, please note that there are some full on technicolour pics (LOL) to accompany the text I wrote below, now available on the Angling International FB page. These will be added to their website in the very near future so all you need to do from now on is print off a stack for the lake of your choice before you head off on hols and (hopefully) you'll be sorted!
PS If anyone is interested, I will shortly be offering a guiding service for 3-7 day trips for 4 anglers over to Abbey. Prices are yet to be confirmed but will probably be negotiable to begin with, dependant on just how much of a b*tch you want me to be between landing your fish and taking photos lol!!
Please note this isn't a FULL guiding service as none of you can afford to pay me enough to cook for you n all, the grub'll be sorted either via the clubhouse or the new, on-site restaurant!
If you're interested, PM me here or please contact Ian at the Angling International office..
Kind regards,
Ru
