Harescombe Fisheries- Field Lake

Peg 8
10lb 8oz
Last (8th... may as well be last)
12 fished

Harescombe Fisheries again, back on Field Lake for the Thursday affordable.  12 fishing todays match, which is a good turn out considering the frost, as it was a killer.  Anyway hoped for some bites, and even if the carp dont feed, which is highly unlikely, then the lake is RAMMED with roach.

Drew peg 8, which was a little to high up, but still hoped for a few bites.

Started by cupping in a few mircos and 4mm pellets at 13 meters at 11 O'clock position (angel and not the time) and started on 10mm bread at 2 O'Clock position to catch a 4oz skimmer first put and another second put..... when on the pellet line as a few early carp were hooked, so thought they were having an early feed.... anyway caught a skimmer.  Worried of lack of carp.... and that was the case.  After 1.5 hours, the lake had switched off, i still havent seen a carp and Paul Dicks had slowed down, he had caught 4 decent ones on bomb and bread in the middle of the lake.   So fished for roach for 2 hours and caught maybe 6lb of them...  it was getting stronger, but wasn't going to win anything, so decided to go all out for carp and only had one at 14.5 meters.  1 bite one carp. 

Fished pretty well considering the freezing conditions and EVERYONE caught.  It may of been little rough.  But 7lb of roach and small skimmers and 1 carp is better than nothing.
