Chris and I had another good days fishing over at Fennes fishery.  We fished the main lake, by the shop, not far from the car park.
I set up two feeder rods and Chris set up one Feeder and one float fishing.
The fishing was a tad slow especially for me as I elected to stay on [...]

Hi All,
It has been a while, my apologies for not posting.    I have had a couple of good fishing trips just lately. One was on the Ha’penny pier with Mickey on Sunday 19th Sept. I caught a small schoolie Bass (which we threw back in) on Lugworm. If it had have been 4 cms longer [...]

I have had 2 fishing sessions at Fennes with Cousin Chris and a sailing trip from Walton on the Naze to Ramsgate to Dunkirk, Niewpoort and then back to Walton on the Naze.
The sailing was at the beginning of the Month for 4 days. We had good sailing weather but could have done with a [...]

Well the weather was just about perfect but muggins here only caught one small F1 carp the whole day.   Chris did really well with the pole and had a good bag of F1 carp, bream, roach, rudd and tench.  He caught a lovely 16lb 6oz common carp and a nice tench which looked about 3lbs.
The [...]

Chris and I had our 3rd visit of the year to Fennes Fisheries, Braintree yesterday. It was out best days fishing so far with a good bag of Bream with a few bonus Carp thrown in for good measure. Chris fished mainly with the pole and I used a long range feeder method [...]

Went to Fennes estates again last Thursday with Chris. We had quite a good days fishing in the top lake. Chris used pole and I used a match rod & reel. Chris caught a good weight of mostly Bream with a few F1 Carp and Roach thrown in. I on the other hand [...]

Well, not much to report fish wise. Chris and I anchored the ‘Lollipop’ in the River Stour, just outside the shipping channel, not far from the end of the stone pier. We were hoping to see some nice spring Cod running up the river but all we caught were very small Cod and Whiting. [...]

Sorry for the long absence from this blog. I have not been fishing for a while. The cold weather makes me a bit of a fair weather fisherman these days. Apart from that, the Cod in and around Harwich have been absent for the last 2 months. Off chasing Sprats I guess.
Cousin Chris [...]

I had a few hours fishing on the Ha’penny pier yesterday afternoon. It was a calm murky drizzly sort of day. No one else was fishing so I had the pier to myself. I now know why. No fish, no bites, nada! I had the best sort of bait which was live shrimp that [...]

Had a quick trip down to the promenade at Harwich to use up the rest of the lugworm that I dug last Sunday. The worms were mostly half dead, limp and starting to pong so I thought it might be a waste of time. I arrived at the bottom of Barrack Lane around 11:10 am, [...]
