Makins 3, inner and outer avon

[NipperO]

Hi all, its my fist post so be good to me. Got a match soon on inner and outer avon at makins, anyone fished it lately and can clue me up with tactics, baits, best pegs, stamp of fish, it would be very helpful. thanks

Fished a big team match on the venue in 2010. Which we won. Tactics were chop and caster fished as tight to the stick ups on the far bank, and odd bonus fish in margin at last hour.

Thanks for the reply mate, whats the target fish then ? is it carp or silvers ?

[dunno]

Its 13m wide and peggy,you want to be on a bend or near a feature. Theres some silvers and chub near snags and features but its carp which wil win it.

When we fished phase 3 it was about 130 anglers (25 odd teams of 5) and it was fishing for bites. Someone will land 20 carp for 30kg odd.

Very much same as the Avon,there`s only 20 pegs on it, and you will need spare pegs to catch well
