Manor Farm Leisure - Island

Sunday 28th
Peg 23
59lb 8oz
Won section
13 fished

Today's match look to a lot better, as the weather was much more milder and the wind nowhere near as strong. A seem to like drawing in the corner, however the wind was blowing into it, and therefore did fancy it for a few fish. However, my Mainline NRG meat didn't work today, and 6mm banded pellet was much more productive.

Yellow Meat gear, Drennan Carp Hair riggers and Preston quick stops. I use 0.165 Colmic X5000 line, I wouldn't suggest going any lighter as these carp run big and they are very powerful.

Got a battering off the next peg though.

Peg 6

First place

It is surprising how many big carp there are at Manor Farm Leisure, and I think with the cold weather coming, these carp are having a quick feed before the winter comes. Last night’s frost was always going to make this a difficult fishing match, however very pleased with drawing peg 6, what a flyer!

Big fish trying to get under the rope.

I had 4 fish that would of gone 30lb.

Manor Farm Leisure - Island Pool

Peg 24
44lb 10oz
No good

I real struggle today, couldn't put a run a fish together at all! The waggler was by far the most productive line of attack. Fished and fed 6mm coarse pellet at 23-25 meters.

Well done to Andy who has won his second match on the bounce!

Solhampton - Buzzard Pool

Peg 14
35lb 10oz
No good

It was a very bleak morning, which slowed things down to Solhampton's normal standard. However there was four 70lb weights on the lake and it did fish well in places.

Well done to Karl who won Partridge lake with 104lb.

Manor Farm Leisure - Windmill Lake

Peg 29
84lb 4oz
2nd

I do enjoy fishing Windmill Lake, and to be honest it's my favourite lake at Manor Farm Leisure, as when that float goes under it could be anything. Also as a whole Windmill lake is dominated by the pole anh has a lake head of Carp and F1's, but also has loads of roach, skimmers, perch (some big ones I had 3lber) and chub.

I had an enjoyable and challenging day on the pole at 13 meters and down the edge. Fished pellets all day, fished 6mm and 4mm on the hook and fed 4mm pellet over the top.

Today's winner, Steve with 25 Carp for 104lb

A few late carp down the edge, but 20lb behind winner, too little too late

Boundary Pool

58lb 8oz
Peg 38
1st Place
15 fished

Manor Farm Leisure is a great venue that I do fish throughout the year and more so in the winter time. With the weather like a "yo yo" and really heavy rain last night, today's open match on Boundary Pool is going to be a tougher match than normal.

I caught many different carp today. Mirrors, Common Carp, Ghost Carp, F1's and this crucian carp.

Bomb and pellet worked well, I used 0.18mm Colmic Method Line Feeder to 0.125 X5000 hook length and 18 Drennan Carp Feeder hook. "Pinged" 6mm pellets all day and didn't go onto it for a couple of hours to build the swim up, and caught steady the bomb at 30 meters, and mainly caught F1 carp up to 4lb! I fished a long tail, about 2 foot long so had a nice slow fall. I fished the waggler over the top which result in a couple of small F1's, bomb was more affective.
