It was a cold and damp Sunday morning, along with around 7 other anglers I did not expect to do very well due to the weather and because the fish are starting to become less active.
I used both Robin Red & Chilli and Robin Red & Garlic made into pellets.
The colours of these pellets are fantastic. I noticed that the colour bled out almost immediately.
I fished from a pole, using a feeder and also fished the margins and had bites almost immediately.
Total catch for the day was 42lb with a good 11lb carp.
I was very impressed due to the fact he was the only one to catch. The other anglers hardly had a bite.
Taking everything into account, the weather conditions and that the lake is very hard to fish I had fantastic results.
All in all it was a great day's fishing.
