Hi Chris,
Thanks m8 the pool is really comming along now the last couple of matches have been won with 16 and 17 lbs with good back up weights.
Sunday saw me with 17lbs ,John Fagan with 16lbs and Doug Cooper with just under 10lbs.
The fishing has seen really good mixed bags of fish with Carp to 6lb,chub to 3lbs 4 oz and Tench to 3lbs and a roach to nearly 1 lb with loads of silvers, orfe etc.
The really good thing is that when the float goes you just don't know what is on the other end, We all think that it is a lot better than carp after carp even though we have quite a few smaller carp they are not really that dominant, mind you we think that the average size of the fish in now near 1lb so until they get bigger the pool will be just what we wanted a very good mixed fishery with the potential to produce very big pleasure and match weights.
We really could do with the weather settling down as during the week its not bad and then at the weekend it goes right downhill, 2 weeks ago we fished the match with 2 inches of snow on the ground and it still needed 16lbs to win, roll on summer when they have got there heads down
