I am back again with the latest news about our pool. We decided that a number of pegs at the top end of the pool were just too narrow and they didn't fish anywhere near as good as the rest of it, this was due to a rick with the original plan of the pool and needed to be sorted.
This work was undertaken in Oct 07 and as you can imagine had quite an effect on the fishing.
As you can see from the slideshow we have made some serious moves to get the place back to normal and within a few months you can see the effect this has had on the pool.[IMG]

The fishing has not got back to normal as yet but that is mainly due to the work carried out and the condition of the water and the weather which has seen the pool frozen over on three seperate occasions since December.
We have still been having reasonable sport with most matches being won with double figures with reasonable back up weights.
We have just completed another work party that has seen us plant in excess of 60 trees mainly on the top end of the island and the new bank and over 40 sedges in the island margin to give more cover for the fish and create more natural pond life, the next phase will be to fill in the nearside margin with more plants at the top end this will hopefully give the pegs there really good margin fishing as after the work they have now got approx 3 feet next to the bank.
We are hoping for some really good weights in the next few months with the weather warming up and the water getting back to its normal colour instead of the drinking chocolate that is resembled last Oct.
