Fishing trip to Fennes. 1st July 2009

Chris and I had a brilliant days fishing at Fennes once again.

We met up at the usual time of 10 am and decided to fish the top lake for a change.

The weather was hot at about 25 degrees centigrade.

There was a small private match going on at one end of the lake with about 10 fishermen.  We chose a likely spot at the other end and set up.  I was into the tiddlers from the word go using sweetcorn as bait.  I caught a nice selection of rudd, roach and roach/bream hybrids.  I used a shakespeare 12′ match rod with some nice but ‘no name’ reel.

I used 7lb test line,  just in case a large carp wanted to play. The hook was a size 12 barbless and I float fished just on the bottom which was about 4′ deep.  The bait selection was mainly sweetcorn, luncheon meat, chopped up into small cubes and maggots.

After 30 minutes or so, I changed bait from the sweetcorn to the meat. I was only fishing about 15 feet out, next to the reeds. There were loads of hungry Perch that were taking the meat. I did not see them when using the sweetcorn.

At about 11 am, I cast out as usual to the same spot about 15 feet out, just as a carp was cruising by on the surface. The small cube of meat splashed into the water about 2″ in front of his nose and bam! . He was off and running, straight into the reeds.

Luckily the silly fish swam straight out again and after a few minutes, cousin Chris netted him/her for me.  Chris took a photo and I put it straight back.

Chris mostly used the pole and caught some nice Bream and a couple of F1 hybrid carp. He was using a Maver 10 metre pole. I cannot tell you the model . I will put in some photos and a short video of him catching the carp. If you are in the market for some poles then please visit polecarp where you will find a nice selection of poles for sale on eBay.

I go freshwater fishing every other week at present. That is why I do not update the blog quite so frequently.

My other project is putting in a new kitchen for my missus. That is also taking up a lot of valuable fishing time.

More later………………… Tight lines to all you fishing folk.

    Online guitar lessons are a great way to learn guitar. Cheaper and more convenient than private studio lessons, the technology is now at a point where the difference in quality is nonexistent and actually has many advantages.

    This might be a bit off-topic but I believe there are a lot of smokers here on lugworm.org. I decided to find a good vendor of e-smokes. I’m done with paying so much for normal smokes.A friend recommended G Smoke According to their website this is how they described their product:
    “Green Smoke offers quality Electronic cigarettes with disposable cartridges that compose of the highest smoke volume in the industry. With a collection of flavors and nicotine levels, Green Smoke’s™ patented technology offers convenience and performance that is unmatched. G Smoke products have been independently tested for safety.”
    I’m thinking of buying them. Anyone else have experience with this e-cigarette?

    Hi guys,

    I know this might be a bit off topic but seeing that a bunch of you own websites, where would the best place be to host. Someone recommended I use Blue Host for $6.95 a month which seems like a great deal. Anyone here on lugworm.org using them?

    I use hostgator!

    Hi there,

    Thought I’d share something interesting I got hold of recently. If you’re sick and tired of running around totally broke while other players get barns and greenhouses and the most expensive villa, this information is for you.
    You’ve probably always wondered why you can’t seem to make as much money or level up as fast as the other players in the game.

    This isn’t cheating, the guide just reveals something only a few people know off.
