Week Commencing: Sat 08/04/2017

This week we had Road Lake return visitors, with Jackie Eastwood's party; and joining them on the lake were Joe Taylor & Henry Smith. With the weather staying warm the fish are on the move and things looked promising on the walk around with the fish giving away their location and crashing out right on queue.

Henry Smith fished in Tea party 1 Henry managed one fish this week but what a fish it was; the mighty Hammer at 51lb 8oz, caught using the IQ-D rig and Banoffee Wafter combination, fished at 18 wraps towards Turtles Corner.

Joe Taylor fished in Tea party 2 and landed a total of eight fish to 34lb Joe fished the IQ-D rig with banoffee wafter to the right hand side of the island and the far tree line baiting little and often.

 Danny Eastwood fished the Beach Danny had six fish to 36lb Danny used a combination of cell and essential cell with his short range rod fished at only 7 wraps and his longest fished at 23 wraps Danny started the week on bottom baits with the IQ-D rig baiting around 2.5kg over each rod then opted for zig rigs towards the end of the week as the weather warmed up.

David Eastwood fished brambles and landed two fish to 21lb David fished all three rods at 20 wraps to the gravel bar in the middle of the lake using Banoffee wafters and the IQ-D rig and baited up using a combination of throwing stick and spod.

Paul Burt fished in Turtles corner and landed two fish to 34lb paul was using the IQ-D rig with Banoffee wafters fished at 15 wraps to the tree line and 15 wraps straight out baiting around 5kgs a day between all three rods.
