Hi Mal,
Ive fished this pool twice recently and done well on both occasions.
Both times I started off at around half way accross fishing on the deck throwing small 6mm cubes of meat and 4mm pellets at the float by hand.
I stayed on this rig catching small barble and tench until i saw signs of fish coming up in the water (which didnt take long).
I then went shallow on the same line (about 16 inches deep) still throwing meat and pellets by hand and once they were coming, at times i couldnt get it back in fast enough!
I did well over a ton on the 1st session which was a practice session, and then did just under 60 Lb doing exactly the same in the match the following weekend.
The winner fished meat tight accross almost in the grass on the 3rd peg from the left on the side with the club house and other lakes behind you.
Good luck and let me know how you get on!To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone. -
thanks Blueser for the info - very interesting
what weight did the winner have and what was his catch?

Maggot about 6 metres or down the edgeComment

Mal,
Pellet across keepiing the feed tight and not going over the top (no big pots)
Then a 6m line with maggot just fed by hand all day and they will come shallow here
Also down the insides left and right on your top 4 again with pellet is normally best.
Its best not to mix maggot and pellet on one line. Decide what your gonna fish where and stick to that.Comment
