Welsh Wizzard

Hi Val and Paul,  both of us enjoyed last week in Lonsdale Lodge and will be booking again for next year.
I attach photos of 17lb, 11lb and 9lb carp .  In total I caught 15 fish, including a couple of tench, fishing daytime only .  The most productive times being early morning, 6.30 till 9am, and evening 6pm till 9.30 pm.  The carp ranged from 6lb upto 17lb. most around 10lb.  All were caught on your boilees, peach and black pepper and tropical fruit.
I started baiting a small area with 50 boilees and topped up with 30 boilees after each fish .  The rig comprised, 2oz running lead, 8 inch semi stiff hooklength, boilee balanced with popup to just sink, fished with a pva stick made of crushed boilees and sardines .
Maybe the larger carp did not show because of spawning during the week .  However size is unimportant. I got just as much pleasure from catching the 6lb as the larger carp .
Thanks for providing a safe and secure environment once again .

See you soon.
Dai and Doreen
